Gilbertus Philaretus, Lemburgius, medicus. Princeps aquarum, quas salubris venis / Produxit, aut producet alma natura, / Spadana lympha, alumna Eburonum terrae / Vires adepta in virus omne morborum; / Hic nobilem te fecit, et tenebroso / Obliuionis vindicauit a regno. I. Lipsius Above the portrait: "E vivis excessit Leodici anno MDLX", i.e. he died in Liège in 1560
