English: Transcription of the print's archaic German text

Nach Christiegeburt / 1513. Jar Adi 1. May hat man dem grossmechtigisten König Emanuel von Portugal / gen Lysabona aus India pracht / ain solch lebendig Thier. das nennen sie Rhinocerus / Das ist hie mit all seiner gestalt abconterfect. Es hat ein Farb wie ein gepsreckelte [sic] Schildkrot / und ist vom dicken schalen uberleget sehr fest / und ist in der gröss als der heillfandt / aber niderichter von baynen und sehr wehrhafftig[.] es hat ein scharffstark horn vorn auff der Nassen / das begundt es zu werzen wo es bey staynen ist / das da ein Sieg Thir ist / des Heilffanten Todtfeyndt. Der Heillfandt fürchts fast ubel / den wo es Ihn ankompt / so laufft Ihm das Thir mit dem kopff zwischen die fordern bayn / und reist den Heilffanten unten am bauch auff / und er würget ihn / des mag er sich nicht erwehren. dann das Thier ist also gewapnet / das ihm der Jeilffandt [sic] nichts Thun kan / Sie sagen auch / das der Rhinocerus / Schnell / fraytig / und auch Lustig / sey.

Translation

English: Since Christ's birth / year 1513. A[nno ]D[omin]i, on 1 May there was brought to the most puissant King Emanuel of Portugal / to Lisbon from India / just such a living animal. they call it Rhinocerus / It is reproduced here in its complete form. It has a color like a speckled turtle / and [it] is covered very securely with thick scales / and in size it is like the elephant / but shorter in the legs and very well fortified[.] it has a sharp strong horn on the front of the nose / which it takes to whetting wherever there are stones / [They say] that it is a triumphant animal / the elephants' deadly enemy. The elephant fears it terribly / because when he comes upon it / the animal runs at him with the head between the front legs / and tears the elephant's belly from beneath / and that suffocates him / who could not defend himself. for the animal is so well armed / that the elephant can do nothing to him / They also say, that the Rhinocerus / is quick / glad-tempered / and also lusty.


Magyar: 1513 május elsején Portugália hatalmas királya, Lisszaboni Mánuel hozta ezt az állatot Indiából, amit rinocérosznak hívnak. Ez egy pontos ábrázolás. A színe a pettyes teknősbékáé. és csaknem teljesen vastag pikkelyek borítják. Mérete az elefánté, de lábai rövidebbek, és szinte sérthetetlen. Erős, hegyes szarva van az orrán, amit köveken élez. Az elefánt halálos ellensége. Az elefánt fél a rinocérosztól, mert az, ha találkoznak, a mellső lábai között támad neki és felhasítja a gyomrát, ami ellen az elefánt nem tud védekezni. A rinocérosz olyan jól páncélozott, hogy az elefánt nem tud kárt tenni benne. Azt is mondják, hogy a rinocérosz gyors, heves és ravasz.
