Beste Heiko,



Du schreyvst:



So my guess is that soenlick just parallels "enichzins" => "in one
mind". So they went there to get rid of all "Roman stuff", but not
with anger but with care and diligence, totally in peace. And being
protestant myself I think I can understand that somehow, that you want
to "clean" the church of all the "Roman stuff" when reformation
comes...


I guess you're quite right here. In Middle Low German we often find phrases
like "... unde maken ene gude sone", meaning 'to make peace', 'to
conciliate', German: 'sich versöhnen'.



Allerbest
