Vertaling: Geografische voorstelling van de jammerlijke watervloed in Neder-Duitsland, die op 25 december 1717, tijdens Kerstnacht, met ontzagwekkende schade en verlies van vele duizenden mensenlevens een groot deel van het Hertogdom Holstein en Bremen, het Graafschap Oldenburg, Friesland, Groningen en Noord-Holland heeft overstroomd.

De kaart geeft een globaal beeld. Lang niet alle grenzen klopten precies met de werkelijkheid.
