TRANSLAToRS' PREFACE TO TILE minx,
The Archbishop of Canterbury presented a petition
from the Bishop of Exeter in favour of printing* the
translators' prefitce in all copies of the Mlle having
marginal readings.
The Bishop of Oxford said it was perfectly essential
that every Bible that had marginal readings to it should
have, at lout, that part of the translators' prefaoe
print'od with it, which explained what was the mewling
owl value of those marginal readings. Re therefore
moved :----
. That the most rev, the president be prved to draw the
attention of the curators of the press at. Oxford-to the publica-
tion of the Holy Biblo without the marginal readings, and
without the translators' preface, and to urge that editions of
the pible of all sizes shall be 'minted with the itutrgina,lKA a
ings, and with at least stkoh portions of the translators' preface -
as are necessary to the true understanding of their intentioni
what they give as, our Bible.
The Hishop of St. David's thought it questionable
whotbei;. any edition of the Bible should be published
without the marginal readings.
After a. few wurds from the Bishop of Llandaff and
the Bishop of Chichester, the resolution was agreed to.
