For those who are interested, I have placed online three separate polyglot
bibles containing texts from different stages of both English and Spanish.
In each case, the text contains verse-by-verse parallel passages of the
different stages of the languages, which enables users to compare the
languages at different stages of their development. The texts are the
following.
1) http://138.87.135.33/bibl-eng/bible.htm
The Gospel of Luke in Old English (Anglo-Saxon bible, c1000 AD), Middle
English (Wycliffe bible, c1380), Early Modern English (King James Version,
1611), and Present Day English (the New International Version, 1973).
2) http://138.87.135.33/bibl-span/luke.htm
The Gospel of Luke in Latin (Vulgate), Old Spanish (E8 manuscript, c1250),
and Modern Spanish (Reina-Valera).
3) http://138.87.135.33/bibl-span/samuel.htm
The book of 1 Samuel in Latin (Vulgate), Old Spanish (E8 manuscript,
c1250), and Modern Spanish (Reina-Valera).
For both the polyglot English and Spanish versions of the Gospel of Luke,
there is also a Word document that can be downloaded, which contains the
entire text in table format.
