In an epilogue (p. 142-144) "Le translatevr" Miggrode states that on the appearance of a translation "en langue brabançonne ou flamengue," he discontinued his own Flemish translation, one third of which had been completed. The extracts from the "Razones" and other additional matter in the Flemish version ("Prologve," "Sommaire de la Dispvte entre ... las Casas ... & le docteur Sepulueda") he added to the French version also, but translated them directly from the Spanish.
