Selected and translated by A.W. van Beyerland.

Buddeke II 43.

Third (?) edition, of 1643, containing 21 epistles. First ed. (1641) contained 13 epistles. Second ed. (1642), known only by title from A.W. van Beyerland's Catalogus of 1642, contained "Achtien schoone Brieven." Of copies known to Buddeke, t.-p. and pref. of 1641 were kept in all three edd. In present copy, for preface (pp. 3-6: "Voor-Rede des Over-Setters") and half-title ("Twee Brieven tot antwoordt, än Paulus Keym, Vanden lesten tijd ...") is substituted, perhaps by a later owner, the author's preface ("Än den leser van dese schriften," paged 3-6) to the 1642 ed. of Böhme's Clavis Ofte Sleutel (Buddeke II 37).

Half-title ti epistles 3-21: "Theosophische Epistel Ofte Sendt-Brief, in de welcke het leven van eenen waren Christen beschreven wordt ..." (p. 63)

Contemporary annotations throughout and on blank leaf at end of vol.
