A rare, beautifully produced mid 16th cent. book. Anthoon Van Hemert, 'regulier by Eyndoven' (Eindhoven), translated the 'Meditationes, Manuale and the Soliloquia' often attributed to Saint Augustine. Added are the meditations of Saint Bernard, 'De Strale der Goddelijcker liefden', attributed to Saint Ansemus and a prayer for him.
