In a modern reading
Public life: parties, meetings, communities, audiences and social networks. Whatever the Garden touches becomes visible to others. [13][14][11]
Text on the 19th-century card
Printed on a French Petit Lenormand (Geûens-Sea, Bruges, c. 1895–1901), Bibliothèque nationale de France [1]
Annonce une bonne et grande compagnie où l'on entrera ; tout près, elle assure encore une amitié constante, mais éloignée, c'est un signe pour de faux amis.
Announces good and large company that one will join; very near, it also assures lasting friendship, but far away it is a sign of false friends.
