Epigraph:
Les smulacres d'or & d'argent enflez,
Qu 'apres le rapt au lac furent gettez
Au desouvert estaincts tous & troublez.
Au marbre script prescript intergetez.
The images of gold & silver are inflated.
After the theft they are thrown into the lake
It is discovered that all is exhausted & dissipated by debt.
All scripts and bonds are wiped out.
