[Popular literature] Aernout van Overbeke. De rym-wercken van wylen den heer en meester Arnout van Overbeke

verzaemelt en uytgegeven door [woodcut initials]. From p. 279 onwards: Geestige en vermaeckelijcke reys-beschryving van Mr. Aernout van Overbeke, naer Oost-Indien uytgevaren voor Raet van Iustitie, in den iaere 1668. Amst., J. Claesz. ten Hoorn, 1678, (14),316 (=318), 2 (bookseller's cat.) p., contemp. overlapping vellum, sm. 8vo.

Leaf T (p. 289-290) lacks a sm. portion of upper outer r. corner, sl. affecting the text/ page numbers; a bit foxed and occas. sl. waterst., occas. other sm. defects. In all, a good copy of the rare second edition (as indicated in the introd.). This was published in the same year as the first under the title De geestige werken, and in this year two more editions appeared. With the nice travel-account that was published separately before, in 1671. Van Overbeke died shortly after these travels. His rym-wercken were very popular, as is illustrated by the 10 editions that were issued up to the year 1719.
