![[536] SouTERLIEDEKENS GHEMAECT TER EEREN GopDS OB ALLE DIE PsatMEN vAN Davin, tot stichtinghe en een gheestelike vermakinghe van allen Christen menschen. Printed in red and black, with the music printed throughout in square notation on five staves printed in red. A woodcut of King David on title. Svo. Half calf. Antwerp, Symon Cock, 1540. J 42 Nijhoff-Kronenberg 1916. Of the nine editions known (mostly by one or two copies only) this is the only one comprising 192 leaves and printed in red and black with foliation. This edition is considered the second by Dr. Scheurleer in his monograph on these Souterliedekens. This curious Psalmbook, the text of which is a rhymed translation of the Psalms (Souter = Psalter) into Dutch, probably by Willem van Zuylen van Nyevelt, is of exceptional value for its music. Each of the 150 Psalms has its own melody printed with it and these tunes are certainly based on very ancient folksongs, arranged probably by Clemens non papa and Tilman of Soest. An excellent fresh and clean copy.](https://iiif.wellcomecollection.org/image/b31808463_0347.jp2/full/800%2C/0/default.jpg)
