Printed within the image is the text, “Behold, how good and how pleasant it is for breathren [sic] to dwell together in unity. It is like the precious ointment upon the head, that ran down upon the beard, even Aarons beard; that went down to the skirts of his garments; as the dew of Hermon, and as the dew that descended upon the mountains of Zion: for there the Lord commanded the blessing even life forevermore.“ The blue calligraphy (Hebrew) at the top translates as "A Song of Ascents of David."
