Few, I think, could forbear a smile when they call to mindthe passionate vituperation which at first was lavished on the criticalefforts of the Revisers of the text that bears the scarcely correct nameof the _textus ab omnibus receptus_. But what I have specified was only the first part of our responsiblework. By the memoranda of agreement between the English Companies andthe American Committee, it had to be communicated to the American Companyof the Revisers of the Authorised Version of the Ne...w Testament, amongwhom were some whose names were well and honorably known in connexionwith textual criticism. Our work, with the American criticisms andsuggestions, had then to undergo the second revision. The greater partof the decisions relating to the text that were arrived at in the firstrevision were accepted as final; but many were reopened at the secondrevision, and the critical experience of the Company, necessarilyimproved as it had been by the first revision, finally tested by thetwo-thirds majority the reopened decisions which at the first revisionhad been carried by simple majorities.
