"Het begijnhof is d'amandelboon van Lier. En om de smaak
en de reuk goed te bewaren, ligt ze wat bezijds onder de frisse
gordijn der Begijnenvest tegen de Nethe, vlak in de waai der velden,
maar omsloten en bewaakt met klim-op-bewassen muren en
zwaarvergrendelde poorten."
"The beguinage is de almond of Lier. And in order to
conserve the taste and the smell, it lies somewhat alongside under
the fresh curtain of the Begijnenvest against the Nethe, just in the
fan of the fields, but enclosed and guarded with walls overgrown
with ivy and heavy locked gates."
