= 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." On the binding: Storm van Leeuwen IIB, 4.2.7. SEE ILLUSTRATION PLATE XCIII.

= Landwehr VOC no. 250, listing three editions (1644 (only 2 copies known), 1645 and 1646); Tiele 82; Tiele (Mémoire) pp.13-15; Cox I, p.9; cat. N.H.S.M. I, p.105; Sabin 14959; Rouffaer/ Muller I, p.52; Roeper/ Wildeman (Reizen op papier) p.140: "De Bundel, die onder de titel Begin ende Voortgang vande Vereenigde Neederlantsche Geoctroyeerde Oost-Indische Compagnie in twee delen verscheen, telde ruim dertig verhalen over reizen naar de Oost. De reisverslagen waren min of meer chronologisch en systematisch (naar beschreven gebied) geordend. Om de kopergravures die Janssonius van Colijn had overgenomen aan te vullen, liet de uitgever een groot aantal nieuwe illustraties in dezelfde stijl graveren. De bundel werd al met al een kostbaar boekwerk. (...) Terwijl Cornelis Claesz aan het begin van een traditie stond, betekende de bundel van Janssonius en Commelin een breekpunt in de produktie van reisverslagen. Wat betreft formaat en uitvoering stond Begin ende Voortgangh nog dicht bij de verslagen die Claesz publiceerde. Janssonius had goed aangevoeld dat de tijd rijp was voor een opleving van het genre. Samen met Commelin heeft hij het Nederlandsche reisverslag een enorme impuls gegeven." Complete copies are very rare. SEE ILLUSTRATION PLATE XCIV.
