The Holy Bible. Newly translated out of the original tongues: and
with the former translations diligently compared and revised. By His Majesty’s special command. Oxford. Printed by John Baskett. 1717. Unpaged. Illus. Plate. Engraved title-page. T° Stevens calls this the most sumptuous of all the Oxford Bibles. It never came into use, however, on account of its numerous errors. The mistake in the running title of Luke XX. has given it the nickname of the Vinegar Bible. The New Testament has an independent title-page bearing the date 1716. 5
