Various eighteenth-century works discussed the language of Dutch pie-tists. This article analyses how those works represented the pietistic language and to what extent the sources overlap regarding the representation of the pietistic lan-guage. There is indeed conformity between the sources. The overlap in represen-tation between the works Kralingiana and Historie van mejuffrouw Sara Burgerhart is most striking. However, the pietistic language is also represented in slightly different ways in Sara Burgerhart. An important question for future research is how the eighteenth-century representation of Dutch pietistic use of language cor-responded to the actual eighteenth-century pietistic use of language.
