Catechism-table in Low-German, 1529.

Several months before Luther edited the Small Catechism in book form, it appeared in the form of tables or placards, ready to hang up on the wall at home, in the school, and in the church, in order to keep these texts and explanations always in sight. Only one of them is known to have been preserved. It contains the morning and evening prayers of the Catechism in Low German. Our reprint is three-fourths the size of the original.
