Latin text of the edition of Lugduni Batavorum [Leiden], 1747
Caeterum hac in Tabula & in octavo, exhibita quoque figura Rhinocerotis foeminae, quae ineunte hoc anno apud nos fuit, annos habens, ut custodes ferebant, duos cum dimidio. Ob raritatem belluae putavi figuras eius gratiores fore, quam alia quaecumque ornamenta ab arbitrium excogitata. Accuratae sunt, justaeque magnitudinis ad rationem figuram hominis, quae his iisdam Tabulis continentur.
Text on the plates, both plate 4 and plate 8 [lower left] J. Wandelaar ad ipsa corpora hominum delineavit, idemque incidit [lower right] Prostat Leidae Batavorum apud J. & H. Verbeek, 1742
