Manuscript in quarto. 1010 pages. This is collection S111b of the Sudermann hymns. The date is the same as that of the preceding number. It contains a smaller number of "Kinderlieder" than the first volume. Passages from the Scriptures, the Church Fathers and the mystics Eckhart and Tauler, are numerous. There are also two hymns copied from the writings of Tauler, given with the text normalized by Sudermann. The hymns in this volume number 376. 38 have appeared in print. (Royal Library, Berlin.)

, | Newer geistlicher | Lieder. | Zum Erkantnüs desz Einigen wahren | Gottes, vnd vnsers Herren Jesu Christi, | den Er gesendet hat, welches dz Ewige leben ist. Johan, 17. | III. Theil.

Manuscript in quarto. 1134 pages. This is the third part of Sudermann's "Gsangbuch, Newer geistlicher Lieder." We shall designate it as Sine. The date is 1615 (circa). This volume contains 1107 hymns, of which about 40 have been printed (Royal Library, Berlin.)

The three volumes which we have just discussed are composed of (1) hymns copied from the two folio volumes, S1 and S11, of Sudermann hymns, and (2) new hymns written in the years 1600—1615 (circa). Those transcribed from the two earlier collections were in many cases revised at this time. No one of the three volumes of this hymn-book contains an index of first lines.
