Strictly classified, the spirituale pomerium is not a chiro-xylographic book but a manuscript of twenty-five leaves in which twelve block prints are variously mounted, at the head, the middle, or the foot of the pages. This would indicate that the scribe planned the layout of the text to include the pictures. The images are printed on the same kind of paper as the text. The only copy is at the bibliothèque royale in brussels. In an inscription on the verso of the first page is the name henricus ex pomerio by which van den Bogaerde was also known. As already noted, the text of the exercitium super pater noster has also been ascribed to him. At the end of the spirituale pomerium is the following statement in latin without the proper contraction marks: explicit sp(irit)uale pomeriu(m) editu(m) anno d(omi)ni m ccccxl . Many authorities agree that the woodblocks may be dated from about the same time as the manuscript, 1440. The subject of this mystical tract is the divine blessings. The xylographic text at the base of each block states the three blessings which are symbolized by three apples, and are intended to inspire spiritual meditation for the twelve hours of the day. The blocks show four scenes drawn from the old testament and eight from the new. Each one contains a tree beneath which a pious soul, represented by a young girl, gathers the three apples of the divine benefactions. On successive pages are pictured twelve biblical events from the creation to the coronation of the Virgin, each explained by texts in banderoles cut in the block.
