The text below the title reads:
'These are the realms of unrelenting fate | And awfull Radamanthus rules the state | He Hears and Judges each committed crime | Enquires into the manner, place and time
The concious [sic] wretch must all his acts reveal | Loth to confess, unable to conceal | From the first moment of his vital breath | To the last hour of unrepenting Death.
Dryden Virg.'
