Soon after 1500 another Antwerp printer, Adriaen von Berghen, in addition to Holt's _Lac Puerorum_, published the commonplace book of a London merchant which passes under the name of _Arnold's Chronicle_, and is famous as containing the earliest text of the _Nutbrown Maid_. A little later still, Jan van Doesborch was at work at the same place, and between 1505 and 1530 produced at least eighteen popular English books, including _Tyll Howleglas_, _Virgilius the Magician_, _Robin Hood_, and an account of recent discoveries entitled, "Of the new landes and of the people found by the messengers of the kynge of portyngale named Emanuel." Doesborch's books are poorly printed and illustrated, but his texts are not noticeably worse than those in contemporary editions published in England. The reverse is the case with two English books produced (1503) by the famous Paris publisher, Antoine Verard, _The traitte of god lyuyng and good deying_ and _The Kalendayr of Shyppars_. These have the illustrations which book-lovers prize so highly in the _Kalendrier des Bergers_ and _Art de bien viure et de bien mourir_, but the translations seem to have been made by a Scot, only less ill equipped in Scottish than in French. In a third translation, from Pierre Gringore's _Chasteau de Labeur_, Verard was more fortunate, for the _Castell of Labour_ was rendered into (for that unpoetical period) very passable verse by Alexander Barclay. Verard, however, had no cause to congratulate himself, for both Pynson and De Worde reprinted Barclay's translation with copies of the woodcuts, and the other two books in new translations, so that in future he left the secular English market alone. It may be supposed that the Act of 1534, restricting the importation of foreign books into England, finally put an end to competition of the kind which Leeu, Verard, and Doesborch had attempted. But isolated English books have continued to appear abroad down to our own day, and form a miscellaneous, but curious and interesting appendix in the great volume of the English book trade. From 1525 onwards, however, until nearly the end of the seventeenth century, compared with the masses of theological books alternately by Protestant and Roman Catholic English exiles, printed in the Low Countries, Germany, Switzerland, and France, the output of secular work sinks into insignificance. The stream begins with Tyndale's New Testament, of which a few sheets were printed at Cologne (see Plate XXVIII), two editions at Worms, and half a dozen or more at Antwerp before it was suffered to appear in England.
