In the dining-room, _in de nieuwe gemaeckte stove_, there are also many pictures, including portraits, a “winter scene” and a “Flemish _Kermesse_.” The principal piece of furniture is a superb sideboard of carved oak, on which the following pieces of silver are displayed: one _aiguière_ and basin with the arms of Spies; four candelabra with chiselled sconces, an extinguisher with tray, and an amphora, all with the arms of Lutzenrode; two large jugs, a deep dish, a mustard-pot and six salt-cellars, also with the arms of Lutzenrode; a chafing-dish with the Ruyssenbergh arms, twenty-two spoons, twenty-six forks, twenty-two knives, and ten porcelain wine-jugs with silver tops. Next to this hall is the bishop’s room, which is luxuriously furnished. The walls are hung with eight large “tapestries of leather” with gold patterns on a silver background. The bed is upholstered with curtains of mauve silk trimmed with a silk braid of yellow and violet. It is furnished with two mattresses, a bolster, two pillows, and two counterpanes—one white, the other green—and over the whole is thrown a large counterpane of embroidered silk trimmed with a fringe of silk and gold thread. The window-curtains, the six chairs, and armchair, are covered with the same silk as the counterpane. There is a large mirror in an ebony frame and portraits of Maximilian, Syberg, and Bongaert. The bishop’s room is next to the salon, _groot salet beneden d’aarde_, which is hung with thirteen pieces of “leather tapestry,” showing gold patterns on a red background. On the mantelpiece there is a crucifix carved of boxwood, the foot of which is incrusted with mother-of-pearl, and there is a magnificent mirror of gold and black wood, the fronton of which is ornamented with a silk cord with large tassels, the whole supported by three gilded griffins. This room also contains sixteen pictures, nine of which are still-life, and are signed Jacques van Esch of Antwerp (1606–1666). The commander’s bedroom is very modest, as becomes one who has assumed the vows of poverty: a little walnut bed with very ordinary curtains, with a mattress, two bolsters, three pillows (one covered with white leather, which he takes on his travels), and a counterpane of quilted silk. He allowed himself the luxury of a fire, because there are andirons and a hearth-box. A portrait of the _Virgin_ and _The Temptation of St. Anthony_ are his only pictures, and the one ornament is a sculptured _Descent from the Cross_. A little desk and a close chair covered in black leather and inlaid with copper, complete the furniture of this room, which makes an interesting contrast with the bishop’s.
