De Psalmen Davids : wt den franchoyschen dichte Nederlantschen ouergeset

Dathenus, Petrus, 1531-1590 · 1572 · [S.l. : s.n.] · 2 pictures

A 1572 Dutch metrical Psalter by Petrus Dathenus, rendering David's Psalms from French verse into Dutch for congregational singing and devotion. Its two pictures are a woodcut printer's device of a rampant lion holding an open book inside an oval border with Dutch lettering, and a close black-letter text block of Dutch verse with a cross mark, showing how dense gothic type was set in columns.
