 BENEDICTUS DE SPINOZA.
 Dit is de schaduw van SPINOZA'S zienlijk beelt,
 Daar 't gladde koper geen sieraat meer aan kon geven;
 Maar zijn GEZEGENT brein, zo rijk hem meêgedeelt, 
 Doet in zijn SCHRIFTEN hem aanschouwen naar het leven.
 Wie oit BEGEERTE TOT DE WYSHEIT heeft gehad,
 Hier was die zuiver en op 't snedigste gevat.

MDC.LXXVII. 21 February." Below: "Benedict de Spinoza. [/] This is the shadow of SPINOZA's visible image, [/] That the smooth copper could not better adorn; [/] But his BLESSED brain, so richly endowed to him, [/] Shows him truely in his WRITINGS. [/] Who ever DESIRED WISDOM[/] Here it was pure and smartly summarised. "
