Abstract: The Old Dutch ‘Wachtendonck Psalms’ [10th C.] survive in fragmentary transcripts from the 16th and 17th centuries. The now-lost original manuscript contained an interlinear gloss that shows different levels of ability in translating the Latin text of the Psalms. Sometimes, the translation displays a good knowledge of Latin and at other times serious flaws can be observed. On the basis of this, this article suggests that there was more than one person involved in translating the Latin text.
