*To the reader:
This figure, that thou here seest put,
It was for gentle Shakespeare cut;
Wherein the graver had a strife
With nature to out-do the life:
O. could he but have drawn his wit
As well in brass as he hath hit
His face, the print would then surpass
All that was ever writ in brass.
But, since he cannot, reader, look
Not on his picture, but his book.
- Ben Jonson.
