Corrections

Every correction to a printed text, its citation, or the record of how it was checked, with the date it went live.

Each printed copy from this site ends with a text version and this address. If a correction below names a text you printed before its date, print it again from the text’s page. So far no correction has changed a word of any printed text: each one corrected a citation or a record.

  • No word changed

    The note on the Coverdale Psalm 130 said the 1662 Prayer Book appoints it in the Burial of the Dead. It does not: that office appoints Psalms 39 and 90, which the 1892 reproduction cited here prints as "one or both of these Psalms following". The sentence is gone.

    Psalm 130

  • No word changed

    Six texts cited "The Book of Common Prayer, 1662", published by the Church of England. They were read from Eyre and Spottiswoode's 1892 printing of the 1662 manuscript, which is now cited, with a note that it prints J for I and v for u, letter for letter.

    Psalm 23, Psalm 121, Psalm 130, The Collect for Aid against All Perils, The General Thanksgiving, A Prayer of St Chrysostom

    The record of a held text, not a printed one: the Lord's Prayer in Hapgood's 1906 service book was cited to page 44. It begins on page 43. The record also said the 1906 copy prints a full stop after its first clause; the printed page has a comma, and the full stop is only in the scan's text layer (corrected 2026-10-20).

    The Lord's Prayer

  • No word changed

    Four texts from the 1889 Manual of Prayers named John Murphy and Company, Baltimore, as publisher. The copy read and linked was printed in New York by the Catholic Publication Society, and is now cited as such.

    The Hail Mary, The Memorare, Anima Christi, Salve Regina

    The verification record said this Mishnah text had been checked against the Leningrad Codex, which does not contain the Mishnah. It was checked against a second vocalized Mishnah, and the record now says so.

    Baruch Dayan HaEmet

  • No word changed

    Three texts from Singer's prayer book were cited as 1890, the year the work first appeared. The copy read is the seventh edition of 1904, and is now cited as such.

    The Priestly Blessing, Psalm 121, The Traveller's Prayer

How each text was checked, and the texts held back where the checks disagreed, is in the verification record.
