- Manuscript on paper of Johannes Baers, Lamentationes Ieremiae carmine elegiaco redditae. With a Dedicatory epistle to Robert Cecil, 1st Earl of Salisbury (c. 1563-1612), secretary of state of Queen Elizabeth

He is the author of two books in Dutch, published in 1648 and 1653 respectively, but his poetic paraphrase of Lamentations seems to be unrecorded. Whether this work was finished in 1601 or 1605 is not clear. This Carmelite monk in Ghent, named Paschasius Baers, became after his conversion minister in Zele (East Flanders) and from 1580 onwards in various places in the Netherlands; from 1590 to 1603 he was active in Leeuwarden., In Latin., Script: Written by a single scribe in careful Humanistica Cursiva. Titles and running titles are in a larger size of the same script., and Binding: Original limp vellum, both covers decorated with a simple blind-tooled frame and four small gilt fleurons in the corners. Remains of two green silk ties. Gold-tooled inscriptions in capitals, on front cover: ".SERO.SED.SERIO."; on rear cover "ANNO.1601." Inscription in ink on the spine: "Lamentationes ***********".
