Coverdale’s New Testament.

**Q.450.8 . N. T. English. Coverdale’s Version of 1535. (Continued. ) while Coverdale was in Paris. The mistakes were so numerous, although the book is a fine one, that Coverdale tried to call in all the copies, making it thereby very rare. It is peculiar for the singularity of some of its translations. The paging is very irregular. The title and dedication, in the present copy, are said to be in facsimile, but if so they are finely executed. On leaves inserted in the beginning may be found a compari- son between the first and second Nicolson editions. At the end in old writing is “The Epistle of Paul to the Laodiceans” and other matters.
