= Owner's entry of J.C. Altdorffer on upper pastedown. Hollstein 431-437; Waller 1732; Scheepers I, 282; Versnel 597; Franken III, p.99. The rare first and only edition of this charming work. The first part consists of a laudatory poem on peat and its trade on the peat-market in The Hague. The second part contains one of the earliest laudatory poems on tobacco to be published in The Netherlands. Arents II, 194: "In this potpourri, the author, after describing and praising the qualities of Dutch peat, relates (undoubtedly as a satire) an amusing incident which he says he had witnessed. A farmer, standing on his peat-loaded ship, was smoking a pipe and thus appeared to onlookers to be on fire. Great confusion reigned while some ran for ladders and shovels, and others for water with which to extinguish the assumed blaze, until the nature of the smoke was explained. In the Nieuw Wys-Mal is related a lengthy and involved fable in verse, presented as someone's dream, in which the two chief characters are Doddus, a blacksmith, and his helper, Julfus. In the course of their travels they come upon a field where grows a special herb. Doddus determines to make tobacco out of this. Julfus is of the opinion that tobacco smells bad. He is told by his master that it is not food for the belly but is intended only for the nose, mouth, and head. Upon the death of Doddus, Julfus plans to propagate the use of tobacco over the earth. Tobacco, he soliloquizes, deserves fame, for it clarifies poor eyesight, expels lice, and drives away wives. It has, too, other valuable remedial and social powers." SEE ILLUSTRATION PLATE XCV.
