HEHL 96554 The editio princeps of the Roman Catholic version
of the O.T. in English Vol. 1 is dated 1609 + Vol. 2
is dated 1610.

The Dowain Old Testament appeared to late to exert
much influence on the King James translations,
but they apparently read + studied the Rheins
New Testament.
The O.T. with fewer + milder doctrinal notes came
off the press of Lawrence Kellam in 1609-10.
As in the Vulgate, the books of the Apocrypha
were interspersed throught the O.T. rather than
gathered in one place, as had become common in
Protestant versions. A 2nd ed. of the N.T. was printed
by Daniel Veruliet - in Antwerp in 1600 in pocket size + reissued
in 1621 + 1633. The O.T. was publsihed later in
Rouen in 1635. (4^0 2 vol., John Coustrier) No further
editions of the Catholic version of the Bible were
printed for 115 years until 1750/

[20], 1115 pp; 1124 (i.e. 1128) pp. In vol. 2 pp. 1001-1004
are repeated in the pagination.
