Varicoloured gold watches made on the Continent during the second half of the 18th century, are usually decorated with symbols of Love and Fidelity or with ornamental military, musical or gardening trophies; a few are chased with flowers or engraved in a basket-work pattern.

She was the wife of a prosperous Jew and was secretly desired by two elders of the community. As she was accustomed to going into her garden to bathe, the elders plotted to seduce her; they hid themselves and waited for her. The two old men sprang out on the naked unsuspecting girl and threatened that unless she gave herself to them both, they would swear publicly that they had seen her in the act of adultey with a young man. Susanna spurned them and cried for help. The old men, thwarted, carried out their threat and Susanna was hauled before a court on the false charge, found guilty and condemned to death. At the eleventh hour, the young Daniel came forward and cross-examined the elders. By the device of separating them from each other, he elicited conflicting evidence, thus proving Susanna?s innocence.
