= Visser 62; Muller 620-621b; Waller 1491 (both other eds.). "Tot in onze tijd wordt Schabaeljes Lusthof nog gelezen. Toen in de roerige jaren zestig gestreden werd voor een democratische verdeling van welvaart en welzijn in een nieuwe maatschappij, werden de moeilijkheden die Schabaeljes 'Wandelende Ziele' op zijn weg vond naar het hemels ideaal, aan het burgerlijk leespubliek van het weekblad Panorama als bespiegelende troost voorgehouden. Van het boek verscheen de laatste Nederlandse herdruk weliswaar in de tweede helft van de negentiende eeuw, maar in Amerika dateert de recentste reprint van slechts een paar jaar geleden. Het is daar niet de historische curiositeit die het debiet verklaart, maar de religieuze interesse van orthodox menniste en amishe lezers." (Visser, Broeders in de geest I, 273).
