| Online bibliographical references | |
| Note 1 | Considered by Koeman, quite rightly, to be the first edition of the Second Part of the 'Mirror of Navigation', with 21 charts, showing the coasts of England and Scotland and the Baltic Sea: as such this second part was intended more specially for the mariners of the Netherlands sailing on the Baltic Sea. |
| Note 2 | In the letterpress part some pieces from the First Part have been reprinted (Sonnet by Douza; the list of harbours and places; 'Totten leser'; details on the declination of the sun; the privileges; 'Aen den boeckbinder'). Are new: the dedicatory to the States of Holland and West-Friesland, and of course the Table (giving only details on the Second Part). |

South coast of Norway; 7. South coasts of Norway and Sweden; 8. Coast of Denmark: Sconia and Seeland, with the Sont; 9. Coast of Sweden with island Oeland; 10. Coast of Sweden; 11.
