Trundle [c.1620?] Woodblock 1: centered below title, between cast fleurons, above two columns and cast fleuron: A man (possibly a jester?) is pictured walking to his right with his left leg extended forward. His hands are held in front of his chest and he has long index fingers that touch at the tips. He wears a low cap and a jerkin with hose. The collar and buttons on his jerkin are visible. Some drapes along the inside of his right thigh. A large rounded protusion appears in front of his left thigh. He wears a long mustache and a pointed beard. On the tips of his shoes are small, round objects.: 138 x 92 Woodblock 2: centered below title, between cast fleurons, above two columns and cast fleuron: At the top of the woodcut is the caption: 'STE[P]HEN, BROO= MEMAN:'. Below the caption walks a man, presumably Stephen, the broom man. He wears a broad-brimmed hat, a beard, a mustache, and wears a ragged and patched coat. His clothes look old and worn out, and the bows around his knees are also bedraggled. Over his left shoulder he carries a stick on which four brooms are tied in the shape of an x. In his right hand he holds a broom vertically, with the bristles of the broom on the ground. Around the broom handle floats a banner on which is written: 'BVY, BROOME, BVY.': 110 x 79 Pepys Library The Pepys ballads : facsimile volume Editor W.G. Day D.S.
