= The Haarlems chamber De Witte Angieren (composed of Flemish immigrants) organized a competition which took place in Haarlem on June 4, 1629, the themes of which had been suggested on the invitation card, on which the question was asked "what is the most worthy fruit than God gave us". To which was to be answered with verses in French or in rhetorician meter. The trophies were all made of pewter: carafes for the question, pints of wine for the sentence and fruit bowls for the song. In addition, prizes were awarded, among others, for the sweetest poem, for the best pronounciation and for the best singing. Scheepers I, 54; Bibl. Belg. E35. SEE ILLUSTRATION PLATE CXXXV.

= Very rare second edition of the plays performed at the rhetorician or 'Rederijkers' festival of Rotterdam, 1561. Although these competitions in rhetorical theatre and poetry existed for centuries in the Southern Netherlands under the name of 'Landjuweel', these festivals were only introduced in the northern part in the second half of the 16th century. The festival here mentioned was organized by the Rotterdam chamber of Rhetoricians called 'Die Blauwe Acolye', which was therefore excluded from the competition. The following chambers were invited to perform the plays present in this edition: De Lelie onder de Doornen (Noordwijk), De Goudsbloem (Gouda), De Roode Angieren (Rijnsburg, including a short song w. musical scores), De Pellecaen (Haarlem, old chamber), De Wijngaertrancken (Haarlem, young chamber), De Roode Acolye (Leyden), De Rapenbloem (Delft), De Roode Roosen (Schiedam) and D'Egelantier (Amsterdam, winner of the festival).
