Summary

Relief shown pictorially. Scotland and England are mostly blank, but labeled with some coastal cities, rivers, and their respective coats of arms (a lion for Scotland, three lions for England). Title cartouche is topped with crowned Irish coat of arms (harp), and above that another coat of arms with a crowned lion and a unicorn at its sides. Includes illustrations of ships and a sea monster in the ocean, and the scale is held aloft by two cherubim, one of whom also holds a paddle.
