Lettering

Iunius. Brachmonat. Kreps in Brachmond d' regierung hatt,/ Die Schaaf Bescherung darin angath./ Die Fischer mit Netzen und Angel,/ Sehen das sie nicht haben mangel. ... Lettering continues: "Cancer regens est lunÿ,/ Tondere oves mensis solet,/ Hamo atque reti quærere/ Quique indigos pisces iubet"
