"...the earliest known draft of any part of the King James Bible, unmistakably in the hand of one of the King James translators.
The draft appears in a manuscript notebook formerly belonging to Samuel Ward (1572–1643), who was part of the team of seven men in Cambridge charged with translating the Apocrypha."
