from PART 3 - APPENDICES
I give here all the errors listed by William Kilburne in Dangerous Errors in Several Late Printed Bibles (Finsbury, 1660). Where possible, the editions are identified in relation to Herbert's catalogue. General comments are given first, followed by references where Kilburne does not specify the error. Individual errors are given with the correct reading in parentheses. Where Kilburne is unclear I have reproduced his text.
