| Title |
Roemer with a Poem to Constantijn Huygens |
|||||||||||||||||||||||
| Description |
Anna Roemers Visscher engraved one of her own poems on a wine glass as a gift for Constantijn Huygens. The verses contain both a lament and a request: her pen has run dry, and her mind has turned to rust. She asks Huygens to fetch her some water from Helicon – home of the Muses – so that her ink will flow freely and she can write poems once again. (Source: text at internet source link) |

Dedication: Aen / Constantinus / Huÿgens
Poem : Verschroockt soo is Mijn Pen, vermuft is mijn Papier / Verroest is mijn Verstant, beschimmelt is Mijn Lier. / Gaet Segen-Rijck Poeet, gaet henen op de Toppen / Van Helicon, en haelt wat Waeter, om te Droppen / In mijn verdroochde jnck, Op dat ick (als ick plach) / Met een gewoone Pen mijn vrinden groeten Mach. |
