schema:abstract "Back in Germany, Reichart wants to give his own opinion on the Netherlands, and says that it is probably one of the happiest countries he knows, even though it is not very fertile. He says however that there is still such a large stock of cereals that the Netherlands has no cause to be envious of other countries. He notes that the water is not drinkable, so that people mostly use rainwater, but that for brewery and other uses, water has to be brought by boat. He also mentions the fact that the air is very unhealthy in the winter, and that heating is expensive because of want of wood. He comments on the use of turf eating at their land, so much so that some regions are now entirely flooded. He then comments on the costs of maintaining dikes, sluices and canals, so much so that foreigners as well as locals have to pay taxes to maintain roads and bridges." ;
