Excerpt from The Text of the English Bible as Now Printed by the Universities: Considered With Reference to a Report by a Sub-Committee of Dissenting Ministers
A few instances of phrases marked in the same way may be adduced: He was the father Of such as dwell in tents, and of such as have cattle. Gen. Iv. 20; A brow ther offended is harder to be won than a strong city. Prov xviii. 19; He bendeth his bow to shoot his arrows. Ps. Lviii. 7 Woe unto them that are mighty to drink wine. Isai. V. 22 Having received - the things which were sent from you. Phil. Iv. 18 And in as much as not without an oath he was made Priest. Heb. Vii. 20.
I have put down the foregoing instances, as they pre sented themselves in turning over the leaves in order that the reader may be in some measure aware of the various kinds of words and phrases which are really found, in the text of 1611 printed in a manner equivalent to our Italics. Instances, somewhat different from the preceding, I shall hereafter have occasion to produce: but the examples, al ready laid before the reader, will, I think, be sufficient for my immediate purpose.
