Paris. 1645 "This Polyglot, known by the name of Le Jay's, or the Paris Polyglot, is unquestionably the most magnificent in its appearance. It is printed on imperial folio paper, and the typography is exceedingly beautiful. It contains the Samaritan Pentateuch and its version, the first printed edition of the kind.”. Bibl. Sussexiana. cum Textibus Originalibus et Versionum Orientalium Translationibus, edidit BRIANUS WALTONUS, 6 vols.; EDM.

Ib. 1657-67 Heb. Gr. et Lat., Latina interp. duplex est, altera vetus, altera nova, cum Annot. F. VATABLI, omnia cum editione Complutensi diligenter collata, additis in margine quos Vatablus in suis Annot. nonnunquam omiserat Idiotismis, Verborumque difficiliorum Radicibus. 2 vols. folio, vellum, 21. 10s. Ex off. Sanctandrea, 1586 This publication goes by the name of Vatablus's Bible; but it appears to have been printed without his knowledge, and against his inclination. As it savours of principles, and contains remarks (by R. Stephens), friendly to the Reformation, Walton, in his Prolegomena, ascribes the editorship to R. Stephens. Dr. Townley says, several of the notes were taken down at Vatablus's Lectures, by Le Comte, at the request of R. Stephens, and it therefore obtained the name of Vatablus's Bible. It was condemned by the Sorbonne, suppressed, and placed among the prohibited books. 6 PSALTERIUM (Quincuplex), Gallicum, Romanum, Hebraicum, Vetus, Conciliatum. Folio, fine copy, Venetian morocco, from the Rev. Th. Williams's library, 41. 14s. 6d. Par. H. Stephani, 1509 another copy, in the original stamped binding, wooden boards, brass corners, &c. 21. 12s. 6d. 7 8 9 Ib. 1509 another copy, secunda emissio, vel. fine copy, 21. 2s. Ib. 1513 "The above title is printed within a circle of an engraved title-page, representing several angels, two of which are supporting a shield, with three fleurs-de-lis, and a book, with the initials of the printer's name, H. S., enclosed in a wreath of flowers. Of the versions contained in this Psalter, the Roman is that of Jerome; the Gallican is that used in the Cisalpine Gallic church; the Hebrew is from a copy given to the ancestors of Sophronius by a Latin colony; the Vetus is the Italic; and the Conciliatum the amended Gallican. The Italic version of this Psalter has been highly esteemed, from the editor having availed himself of a MS. copy, written in uncial characters, with gold and silver letters, on purple vellum, which is supposed by Le Long to have been obtained from Toledo, by Childeric I., about 542. This is the first publication in which the verses of Scripture are distinguished by numerical figures. A second edition of this Psalter was issued in 1513: it has the same title-page, over the top of which is printed in capitals, SECUNDA EMISSIO. It is a splendid volume; and the editor, H. Stephens, calls this the more correct edition. The ink, both red and black, is very fine, and the paper strong and good."-Bib. Sussexiana. Græcum, Arabicum, et Chaldæum, cum tribus Latinis Interpretationibus et Glossis. Folio, a superb copy, in blue turkey, gilt leaves, joints, &c. by C. Lewis, 6l. 16s. 6d. Genue, 1516 "This Psalter, which is sometimes denominated the Genoan Polyglot, is of exceeding interest, not merely on account of its rarity, but as being the first polyglot work ever published; and containing the first Arabic ever printed. It is also remarkable on account of a note on Psalm xix. 4. In this note Justinian gives a very curious sketch of the life of Columbus, an account of the discovery of America, and a description of its inhabitants."-Bib. Sussexiana. 10 HOSEA, Heb. et Chald. cum duplice Vers. Latinâ et Comment. Ebraicis trium doctissimorum Judæorum (Kimchi, Jarchi, et Ben Ezra). 4to, vellum, scarce, 10s. 6d.

It has always been held in much estimation, and considered as eminently useful to those who are not proficients in the Hebrew language, for the translation is chiefly literal. In this second edition, many additional annotations, particularly in the Pentateuch, were inserted, and many errors and obscurities corrected and illustrated. 4to, neat, 17. 10s. Ant.

De Rossi regards this as one of the most important editions ever published; and Le Long says, "optimis et accuratioribus editionibus præstantioribus etiam ac rarioribus annumeranda.". sec. editionem Athiæ recens. variisque notis illust. ab Ev.
