The second section contains a panel with a Greek key border flanked by trees containing the verse ' Fragrant the Rose is but it Fade in Time/ The Violet sweet but quickly past the Prime/ White Lilies hang their Head and soon decay/ And Whiter Snow in Minutes melts away/ Such and so Withring are our early (J)oys/Which Time or Sickness (S)peedily destroys'. The third section depicts the Temptation of Adam and Eve, an angel and a fig tree. The final section depicts a balanced arrangement of detached trees, stags, flowerpots, sprays, squirrels and butterflies.
