_Derivation of the Word "Celt"_ (Vol. viii., pp. 344. 651.).--Job xix. 24.

In the Cologne (Ely) edition of the Vulgate, 1679, the word is _Celt_. In

Mareschal's Bible (Ludg. 1525), the word in the text is _Celte_, but the

marginal note is "al^s _Certe_." In the Louvain (or Widen's) Bible (Antw.,

apud Viduam et Hæredes Joannis Stelsii, 1572, cum priv.), the word in the

text is _Certé_. This latter being an authorised edition of the Vulgate, it

seems probable that _Celté_, or _Celt_, must have been an error.
