Title top:
Abenteuerlicher Simplicissimus
[Adventurous Simplicissimus]
Caption bottom:
Ich ward gleich wie Phoenix durchs Feuer geboren / Ich flog durch die Lüffte? ward doch nicht verloren / Ich wandert im waßer ich streiffte zu Land, in solchem Umschwermen macht ich mir bekant / was oft mich betrübet und selten ergetzet, was war das? Ich habs in dies Buch hier gesetzet / Damit sich der Leser gleich wie ich itzt thu, entferne der Torheit, und Lebe in Ruh.
[Like Phoenix I was born from fire / I flew though the airs? yet was not lost / I wandered in water I roamed over land, in such swarming around I made myself known / what oftentimes grieved me and rarely amused / what was that? I put it in this book here / So that the reader, like I'm doing now, may retire from folly and live in peace.]

Licensing

This is a faithful photographic reproduction of a two-dimensional, public domain work of art. The work of art itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
Public domain

The author died in 1676, so this work is in the public domain in its country of origin and other countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 100 years or fewer.

This work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published (or registered with the U.S. Copyright Office) before January 1, 1929.

This file has been identified as being free of known restrictions under copyright law, including all related and neighboring rights.
The official position taken by the Wikimedia Foundation is that "faithful reproductions of two-dimensional public domain works of art are public domain".
This photographic reproduction is therefore also considered to be in the public domain in the United States. In other jurisdictions, re-use of this content may be restricted; see Reuse of PD-Art photographs for details.
