介绍（中）	一种长方形的盒子，有成形的端部，它的铜盒形与盒子的形状相似。盖子上的卡通画描绘了一对夫妇在风景中交谈。第二个人的半身像，规模更大，出现在前景中；这应该被视为邪恶舌头的化身，也许是一个说长道短的人。（另见57.108.2。）如下所述：瓦尔舍通（Valsche tong）是恶舌在房子下面的便盆里，这对夫妇拿着水罐和玻璃杯坐在房子前面。一位牧师站在他们旁边，手里拿着十字架。下面写着：Dont geen mens wel（对任何人都没有好处）轮辋内衬，边缘模压。叶卷被发现在侧边、边缘以及侧边的前端和末端。背面有几何装饰。范·德·林登（Van der Linden）在《Les boîtes en cuivres》（第203页）中称，这是烟草盒上经常出现的铭文之一。
介绍（英）	An oblong box with shaped ends, its copper cartouche of a shape similar to that of the box. The cartouche on the lid portrays a couple conversing in a landscape. The bust of a second man, much larger in scale, appears in the foreground; this should be seen as the personification of the evil tongue, a gossiper, perhaps. (See also 57.108.2.) Inscribed below: Valsche tong is fel (An evil tongue is fierce). In the cartouche on the underside the couple is seated with a pitcher and glass in front of a house. A clergyman stands next to them with a crucifix in his hand. Inscribed below: Doet geen mens wel (Doesn't do anybody good). Rims are lined, edges molded. Leaf scrolls are found flanking the cartouches, on the borders, and on the front and ends of the side. The back side has geometrical ornament. This is one of the inscriptions that frequently occur on tobacco boxes, according to Van der Linden, "Les boîtes en cuivres," p. 203.
