Written below the image "Whoever engages in writing against national prejudices should think of Caesar, swimming from the Pharos, saving his Commentaries with one Hand, and his Life with the other: Religion and the Liberal Arts are worth this Hazard: Even Envy and other Affections of Mankind should not intimidate a Person who means well; Success is not in every Persons Power; yet to attempt it in things deserving Praise is Praise worthy."
