- Inscribed at lower center: Virtutum, & vetusti generis claritas, quibus præsulges; uir ILLme omnium animos rapiunt in tui amorem & obsequia. Patere igitur extare constantis hoc in te meæ voluntatis argumentum, quod palam exhibeo; dum Ioannem Altum, militem prætorianem, romanarum antiquitatum indagatorem, monstratoremque meo cælo expressum ad te mitto, tamquam ad præclarum decus aulæ principis, inter urbis æternæ decora suspiciendum. Exiguum grati erga te, ob innumera in me collata beneficia, pignus animi, ea liberalitate metire, qua bonarum artium studia colis, & foues; meque perpetua benignitate complectere. Vale. Romæ. Kal. Novemb. Anni Salutaris MDCXXIII. Franciscus Villamoena/ Superiorum permissu
