The metrical rhyming psalms were probably arranged by a Utrecht nobleman, Willem van Zuylen van Nijevelt (d. 1543). For the melodies he used popular folksongs from the Low Countries (though some have German or French origin). The fact that the melodies of the songs were added to the texts makes this compilation a very important source. - Very rare second version of the first edition of the oldest rhimed version of the psalms in Dutch. - Nijhoff/Kronenberg 1916; Scheurleer, Souterliedekens II (pp. 32-34); not in Adams, not in Machiels. 1 copy present (KB) in NCC/STCN.€ 5000
