Text reads:

HERCULES arla stod upp/ en morgon/ i första sin ungdom/
fuller av ångst/ och twijk/ huru han sitt lefwerne böria
Skulle/ däraf han Prijs kunde vinna/ medh tijden/ och Ähra.
I thet han altså går uti tankar/ och högste bekymber;
Trippar ett artigt Wijf/ doch lätt af later/ och anseend/
Til honom an; blomerad i margfals-färgade kläder;
Glimmand' i Pärlor/ och Gull; och gnistrand' i dyrbare Stenar;
Skön aff Anlete; men (som syntes) sminkad/ och färgad;
Som een drijwa snö-hwijt/ medh rosen-färgade kinner;
Käck-ögd/ diärf utaf upsyn; af huld war hon fyllig och frodig
Gull-gåhl-blänkiandes håår/ bekrönt medh Roser i Pärlor.
