Español: Ermitaño junto a su cabaña de paja, grabado

Una viñeta grabada en forma de óvalo muestra a una figura con túnica, sombrero y bastón de pie en un sendero frente a una cabaña de paja coronada con una cruz, enmarcada por árboles. Colinas suaves se extienden bajo un cielo nublado con franjas, y un pie impreso debajo dice "where the Hermit hangs his moss-clad cell."
