Un Lion & un Soleil au dessus
[f16915211]
Un Lion & un Soleil au dessus
Et ex Ungue, & ex Sole
On me connoit à l’Ongle & au Soleil
Mi connosceranno e dall’ Unghie, e dal Sole
Soi conodico por las Uñas, y por el Sol
Men kent my by de Klaeuwen, en by de Son
I am known by my Clavvs and the Sun
Men kennet mich bey den Klauen und der Sonnen
