Note 34 — Library of Lambeth Palace.

Printed as a specimen of this new Translation. There was also another specimen, containing only the first eight Psalms, probably printed a little before the present. Of this several passages differ, both from the second specimen and the adopted version. Copies of each are in the Bodleian; the earlier, a sheet and a half, has no title. The whole version was licensed to be sung in churches, and the first edition of it printed in the next year. It is to be observed that the version of the specimen above recorded differs in many places from that which was afterwards adopted, as may be seen in the Appendix to Cotton’s List of Editions of the Bible, pp. 150, 151.
