File:Print, broadside (BM 1868,0808.3366).jpg

English: A Dutch broadside on the Protestant sufferings at the hands of Catholics from 1414 to1679 with an engraving in several compartments. Centre left, the Pope, supplicants at his feet, stepping with his right foot on the head of a king and knocking off his crown (a reference to the legend of Pope Alexander III and the Holy Roman Emperor Frederick Barbarossa), a globe beneath his cloak, an indulgence at his waist among other catholic accessories and at his left foot a print of the seven-headed beast of the Apocalypse lettered "666"; behind him, to right, a prison, to left, in the distance, a ceremonious papal procession encounters Christ on a donkey and in the middle ground people being burnt at the stake. Centre right, a Jesuit with lion's feet wearing a cardinal's hat, a devil blowing in his ear with bellows, stands on a gravestone on which is a cornucopia of coins and beneath which is a naked woman; he holds a book lettered in Latin "Council of Trent" and a rosary in his left hand, and with his right hand grasps a burning torch, attached to his waist are a bell, a whip, and a mask; behind him to right, a banner displaying scenes of Jesuit martyrdom, a church with the names of Ignatius Loyola and Francis Xavier, to left, a man (perhaps a priest) steps up to speak to two people inside a coach the roof of which is adorned with crowns, in the middle ground, a priest and a lawyer at the deathbed of an old man, and in front a Jesuit hears a woman's confession and beats her with a birch (perhaps a reference to the notorious Brother Cornelius of Dort). These two images framed by ten others showing cruelties of Catholics against Protestants. Clockwise from top left: the burning of Jan Hus at Constance in 1414; St Bartholomew's Eve massacre in Paris, 1572; atrocities in the Netherlands in the 1570s and against the Waldensians in Piedmont in 1655; four scenes concerning the Popish Plot including Charles II amidst members of parliament; preachers and churchmen being transported to Barbados in 1678; atrocities against protestants in Ireland in 1641. Engraved inscriptions in Dutch and English. (n.p.: [1679])
