Headline Ee3b, Proverbers.=================These Bibles were printed probably in Amsterdam and Dort and adopted by Barker, for the use of English Puritans in the Low Countries. There are many editions bearing this date, which while agreeing closely are yet distinct. No doubt a certain number of copies were originally issued in a mixed state. The nominal date, 1599, is probably untrue in almost every case.
