InscribedInscribed (below plate): He thought about himself, and the whole earth, / of man the wonderful, and of the stars. / And how the deuce they ever could have birth; /How many mailes the moon might have in girth, / of air balloons, and of the many bars / To perfect knowledge of the boundless skies; / and then he thought of Donna Julia's eyes. / Don Juan.
