Quite a few Middle Dutch manuscripts from the 15^th century contain a vernacular version of the liturgical psalter and of some liturgical offices. This translation was made within the influential late medieval religious movement of the Devotio Moderna and was primarily distributed in convents of the third order of St. Francis in Holland. It must have been around 1418 that this distribution took place, most probably to make the female tertiaries familiar with the Divinum Officium. In communities of the Franciscan third order, the Latin Divine Office was not usually recited. By 1418, some of the male spiritual leaders of those convents wanted to have them evolve into cloisters where the rule of St. Augustine would be followed.
