"Notes and Queries, Number 13, January 26, 1850"

181. and vol. ii. p.316. are
notices of _The Bishops' Bible_, where mention is made of one edition of
it containing two different versions of the Psalms. The two statements,
however, differ, making it doubtful of what is intended; the first
speaking of one edition and the second of another.
Vol. i. p. 181. says--
"The first edition of this Bible was published in 1568. In this the
new translation of the Psalms was inserted alone. In the second
edition the translation of the Great Bible was added in opposite
columns, and in a different character."
Vol. ii. p. 316.:--
"Bishops' Bible, first edition, 1568. There is also a double
translation of the Psalms, one from what is called the Great Bible,
the other entirely a new one."
Will any of your correspondents be so obliging as to state what is the
additional version--new or other--there alluded to, other than the
present Liturgy version?

_Extracts from the Parish Registers of St. Olave's_, which were
published in vol. ii. of the _Collectanea Topographica et Genealogica_.
At p. 316., of that volume, he will find the following entry, which
pretty nearly determines the date of Sir William Rider's death:--"1611,
November 19.
