In the center is John Winthrop, the magistrate who’d most tried to get her put away. He’s trying to make a comeback, but is being mocked by the secretary to his right.
John Endicott, who’d tried to get all women to wear veils, is in the background, wielding a sword, which he’d wear everywhere – using it to chop up flags and pagan symbols, and to wave at crowds.
At their feet, under the table, are beds of coals they used for warmth.

Time for me to put off finding the book! I discovered not long ago while chipping away at the family tree that I am (through my grandmother) one of her descendants, by way of her daughter, Faith Hutchinson and her husband, Thomas Savage.
