First and only edition of a pamphlet responding to the pamphlet entitled Oogen salve, printed at Rotterdam in 1650, probably by the same author as the Hollandsche praatjes. The Oogen salve argued, among other things, that consolidation of the Protestant faith was the main goal of the Union of Utrecht (1579), while the author of the present pamphlet, among other things, states the economic effects of the Union. It includes comments on the WIC (Dutch West India Company) (p. 11), and Dutch colonies and conquests in Brazil (p. 16). The book contains a pictorial woodcut exlibris of H. Hendrikse with the text "Walcheren 1944-1945".
The book is in a good condition, few small wormholes in the margins of some pages, paper slightly torn on some pages, one sheet loose. Alden & Landis 650/65; Knuttel 6855; Tiele, Pamfletten 3795.
