Lettering
Aligero in coetu pietatis amante malignus / Astans ante Dei detractor spiritus ora / Impetrat exutum ut cunctis affligat Iobum / Debelletque modis victricia pectora diris. M. Heem. in. P.G. f.
Paraphrase of lettering: Standing in the winged gathering that loves piety, before the face of God, the evil spirit disparagingly demands that He afflict Job by stripping him of everything, and that he conquer Job's triumphant heart in terrible ways
