On either side of the coat of arms the following verses are engraved: "Men zegt de Molen grindt // En draait met alle winden // Dat rijkelijk o Vrinden // Uw zorg en sweat pays // T Geluk dat fickle Den stervling biet den rug // Dan streelt en dan weer stug" and "Draait ook en keert gedurig // Maar be thou eensgezint; Will give each one his own; Then all your life runs // Happiness you win for the day. F.G.". Above the band the following inscription: "Gift van den Heere PIETER KRAAY. To the Rotterdamsche Molenaarsgilden. As Hooft Luyde wares: Jan van der Werf, Cornelis de Goeyer and Lodewijk de Vos 1722."
