... King James’s Version | Bryan Appleyard. (Hat tip, Dave Lull.)
I have, only an arm's length from where I sit, a copy of the Douay-Rheims version of the Bible, to which the King James version owes a great deal. Militant Catholic that I can be at times, it is my preferred version. O have to agree, though, what they were palming off in the Church when I was growing up - the Confraternity edition, if I remember rightly - was pretty short on poetry.
