Augustinus - Vierighe Meditatien oft aendachten - 1547

AUGUSTINUS. Forty meditations or contemplations. And those solitary utterances of the soul toward God. And that little book of the contemplation of Christ. Also St. Bernard’s devotional meditations. And a little book of St. Anselm, named: The Rays of Godly Love, with some of his prayers. Now newly translated by Anthonium van Hemert. Answer by S. Cock, (1547). 4 parts in 1 vol. (1), 62, (1); (51); (26); (46).

Old parchment binding. This binding is newly made from old materials by ‘The Antique Book’. The leather straps are new, so the book can really be closed. The binding is made in a 16th-century style. The first title page is a copy, the other three are original. The last page has been repaired. In the book, one page has been cut along the edge, see photo. There were probably notes written here as well. Across the book there are 16th-century Dutch annotations in the margin. The first three pages have a wormhole, otherwise a good and neat book block. Contains 53 woodcut engravings.
