File NLW MSS 13217-13218E. - Proflenni beibl Cymraeg 1620

Two volumes made up of page-proofs of the 1620 edition of the Welsh Bible (Y Bibl Cyssegr-lan ..., Llundain: Bonham Norton a John Bill, 1620). The lettering on the spine, 'Bibl y Dr Morgan', is inaccurate as the 1620 edition is Bishop Richard Parry's revision of Bishop William Morgan's Bible (1588). Most of the pages are printed on one side of the leaf only. Some of the manuscript corrections are almost certainly in the hand of Dr. John Davies of Mallwyd. Most of the corrections which were not incorporated in the published edition correspond with the list of errata published c. 1672 [?by Bishop George Griffith] as Some omissions and corrections in the British translation of the Bible. A note in manuscript on the reverse side of the first leaf of Genesis is in the autograph of [Rowland Lewis of Mallwyd] (see The National Library of Wales Journal, IX, pp. 495 and Plate IX, 9). The second volume contains a few Welsh prayers written in a contemporary hand, one near the middle of the book of Ezekiel (sig. Ggg6), the others at the beginning of the New Testament.
