[…] en men hun poogde te beduiden, dat zy by dezen huislyken twist geen belang hadden, maar door de banden van oude vriendſchap en van op den zelfden grond geboren te zijn, gehouden waren om te huis te blyven, den ſtrijdbijl diep begraven te laten, en zich by geene van beide partyen te voegen.

Het verzet tegen de oorlog in Amsterdam zorgde er begin 1677 zelfs voor, dat de twee belangrijkste facties in de vroedschap de politieke strijdbijl begroeven.

een loer draaien

Originally a variant of lorrendraaien, which seems to come from lording. Changed by folk etymology after loer (“fool, idiot”) and loer (“lure in falconry”), so the surface analysis became “to draw (turn) a lure”. Older etymological dictionaries allege a link with luur, luier (“nappy, diaper”), although this does not appear to have a basis in early attestations.
