292, The forepart of a horse whose chest is formed as a man's head, ridden by an Eros with a whip. The horse's rear is a ram's head, holding an ear of corn. The horse's foreleg is like a plough on which stands a hare jumping up to something in the horse's mouth; a snake beneath it. Below is an eagle tearing a hare.
