Written in his spontaneous and natural Latin style, the work was received with great acclaim. An English translation of them was ordered during the reign of Edward VI, with funds supplied by Catherine Parr, the sixth, and surviving wife of Henry VIII. Among the translators were Miles Coverdale, Leonard Coxe, Thomas Key, John Olde, Nicholas Udall, and the young Princess Mary (later to be queen), who translated most of the paraphrase on the Gospel of John.A copy of this work was ordered by royal injunction to be 'set up in some convenient place' in churches across the country in order that all clergymen and their parishioners could read it, thus putting it on a par with the Great Bible. 'It was instrumental in making the New Testament in English available and known to clergy and people' and was 'the chief means by which Erasmus was claimed for the English reformed church' (Craig, Forming a Protestant Consciousness, p. 335).‘W. Aldis Wright has distinguished no less than six varieties of Vol. 1. No doubt, owing to the demand for copies at an early date, several presses were employed at the same time, and the work of printing was pushed on as rapidly as possible. Some copies are mixed. There appear to be no such varieties of Vol. 2’ (Herbert 72).Sold with all faults, not subject to return.
