The text reads: „Doer ’t uutvriesen des coorns voerleden waer uut volchde duertyt ben ick ghebout tot stads coorn behout ter gemeente profyt” Because of the freezing of the corn in the past which caused a difficult time I was built for the keeping of the city’s corn for the benefit of the community
