Unknown artist

Part of the text was printed later, so the dimensions of the edge of the plate are smaller than those of the image with the inscription. Inscriptions and textual elements: HONI SOIT OVI MAL Y PENSE. Inscriptions and textual elements: Willem Hendrick den III. Prince of Orangien, &c. Inscriptions and text: William Henrik Prince of Orange and Nassouw / Erfstadhouder en Gouverneur van Holland, Zeeland. etc:. Inscriptions and textual elements: If one expects in common from Vorstelijcke loten / Something presumptuous, something high, something uncommon; / What then awaits one, who, WILLEM, are sprung / From Keyserlijcken stam en Koninklijck geslacht? / Whence, Nassau's descendant, will not your fame seek? / Whose praise will not fly, / If in fact your high company and life / Makes you as illustrious as your august blood?
