Second volume of a fine series of miniature almanacs, beautifully illustrated. The work aims to present young literary talent to the public and contains songs and poems by both new and more established Dutch authors, including J.J.L. ten Kate, G. le Francq van Berkheij, D.G. den Beer van Portugael, and M.H. de Graaf. Special attention is asked for De dagen onzer Jeugd by J.E. Schut, and for two pieces by T.H. Bussingh van der Koog, a young deceased Leyden student. Also included are some poems in French by A. Clavareau, and two pieces of music, the first is a serenade with music by W. Broedelet and text by J.J.L. ten Kate, and the second is titled In het Album van L.E. Bosch door D. Soeterik. The almanac was published for 15 consecutive years, by various publishers.
