Motto reads: "Ah what is human life, How like the dial’s tardy moving shade, Day after day slides from us unperceiv’d, Yet soon man’s hour is up and we are gone", a quote from Busiris v i by Edward Young 1719. The dial was removed from the wall in 2004 and placed in store. See replacement dial SRN 6661.
