Inscribed in red, recto of mount, beneath mounted sheet: "II."
Printed in black, verso of mount: "Tak vysoko bláto nedostríkne a kaménky odskaku- / jící od kol, protoze jsou pusky a dela, zvykly si dednou / pro vzdy na sklo vykladních skríní. Jen Hluk soustre- / dující se v usích z kamene mohl by casem prílis zatíziti / staré podpery narkotického spánku. Ale doba je jeste / klidná a z malych, studenych ocí revolveru, ocumujících / ovoce vylozedné pred krámky, cte se stále prosebnejsí / vyzva: aby bylo conejhlubsí ticho. / I"
