[292] The king, considering what good might come of reading of the New
Testament and following the same; and what evil might come of the reading
of the same if it were evil translated, and not followed; came into the
Star Chamber the five-and-twentieth day of May; and then communed with his
council and the prelates concerning the cause. And after long debating, it
was alleged that the translations of Tyndal and Joy were not truly
translated, and also that in them were prologues and prefaces that sounded
unto heresy, and railed against the bishops uncharitably. Wherefore all
such books were prohibited, and commandment given by the king to the
bishops, that they, calling to them the best learned men of the
universities, should cause a new translation to be made, so that the people
should not be ignorant of the law of God.--HALL, p. 771. And see WARHAM'S
