Personification of Preparation; Numismata virorum illustrium ex Barbadica Gente. A high priest is on a stool on a console. He holds a clock in his right hand. In his left hand, an ECLIPENING SUN with the text: Non Nisi Cum Defective Spectator Habet (without a defect, she has no considerations). So: a sound prehee does not receive attention, but when he commits a slip, all eyes are focused on him. The clock expresses that Prellates are the timepieces of the world. They serve man to a size of all movements. They serve people to rule and example. The print is part of an album.
