History
Host volume was kept by one Barbara de Bruijn in the late 18th century, according to a provenance note in Dutch on the inner pastedown ('Barbara de bruijn is mijnen naem om godt te dienen ben ick bequaem').
De Bruijn has left several short religious poems across the host volume, which is an account book. It is uncertain whether De Bruijn is the scribe of the account book as well.
