Now, in the second picture the writings are in poet form which is not traslated so good in English, but I'll try my best.
First knife: My poor chest has become a library, and inside it has been printed lots of grief and sorrow
second knife: I was born in pain, I will die in suffering, and suffering will be writen on my tombstone
Hope that helps

Hi George,
Thats amazing thank you.
Why are the inscriptions so dark? I'm really suprised!
Thank you so much for your help.
Best Regards
