1639. Kirchensänge. A new edition. Published at Lissa, Poland. Contained 360 hymns written by Bohemian Brethren. Of these, 141 are hymns of Michael Weisse. This edition contains a biographical list "of those (14) persons who translated the Bohemian hymns into German verse". This is the only edition in this series which furnishes biographical information concerning these hymn writers. We shall have occasion to mention this list again, in our discussion of the Schwenkfelder hymn-book of 1762.

1661. Another edition of the German hymn-book of the Bohemian Brethren was published at Amsterdam in 1661. The editor was the noted educational reformer John Amos Comenius.
