set "screen.font" in /boot/loader.conf.  on a 4K, 27" display i use:

screen.font="12x24"

but this might be a bit large for your display.  the available fonts are
listed in /boot/fonts and are helpfully named after their size.

(NB: i've only tested this on an EFI system using EFIRT for v(4); i
don't know if this works on a BIOS system.)
