Ave Maria. Veni sancte spiritus et alphabetum sacerdotum. [Cologne: ca. 1514?]. 8° (139 x 100mm). Collation: [1] 4 . 4 leaves. 33 lines. One woodcut of the Crucifixion (43 x 31mm) on first page, lombard capitals. Type: 65G. (One small wormhole touching a few letters, rehinged.) Modern vellum over pastepaper boards. Apparently unrecorded. A similar tract is described in Borchling and Claussen (559A), which they placed at Cologne about 1514. This little work was intended for lay devotion and provides, in addition to prayers, aids for meditation such as the image of Christ on the Cross, the Pater Noster, Ave Maria and Credo, and verses in a Lower German dialect. Two letters in it are signed Nicolaus Symonis. Not in VD-16.
