The Holy Bible in Verse.

The article discusses a verse edition of the Bible. The author notes speculation that the book was written by printer Benjamin Harris and was inspired by his opposition to the papacy and English king James II's Catholicism. Harris' revisions to the book "The New England Primer or Milk for Babes," by John Gaine, and his punishment for the publication of books such as "English Liberties and the Protestant Tutor" are noted. The similarity of woodcuts in the verse Bible and "The New England Primer or Milk for Babes" is commented on. The author suggests a foreword in the book commenting on a pirated edition indicates it may have been published in England.
