A small Dutch pamphlet printed at The Hague in 1650 by D.H. van Waalsdorp, a printer of satirical dialogues, recording a shipboard exchange between Dort and Ter Vere and held by the John Carter Brown Library. Its single picture is a framed oval woodcut of a robed allegorical figure holding scales and a sword, set in ornate scrollwork with fruit and foliage, a classic emblem a designer could adapt for justice-themed borders, frames, or seals.
