His conduct in this See also:matter displayed his ability, but his zeal for the exaction of ecclesiastical dues was remembered in 1641 in the articles brought against him in See also:parliament, which appear to have led to the See also:sequestration of his very considerable preferments .2 He was also charged with Popish practices, but on frivolous grounds, and with aspersing the members of parliament for the See also:city.

William See also:Fuller (158o?–1659), See also:dean of See also:Ely, whose daughter Jane was his second wife. In this retirement he gave himself to See also:Oriental studies and carried through his See also:great See also:work, a Polyglot See also:Bible which should be completer, cheaper and provided with a better See also:critical apparatus than any previous work of the See also:kind (see POLYGLOT). The proposals for the Polyglot appeared in 1652, and the See also:book itself came out in six great folios in 1657, having been See also:printing for five years. Nine See also:languages are used: See also:Hebrew, See also:Chaldee, Samaritan, See also:Syriac, Arabic, See also:Persian, Ethiopic, See also:Greek and Latin. Among his collaborators were See also:- JAMES

Thomas See also:Hyde and Thomas See also:Greaves. The great undertaking was supported by liberal subscriptions, and Walton's See also:political opinions did not deprive him of the help of the See also:Commonwealth; the See also:paper used was freed from See also:duty, and the See also:interest of Crom• well in the work was acknowledged in the See also:original See also:preface, part of which was afterwards cancelled to make way for more loyal expressions towards that restored See also:monarchy under which Oriental studies in See also:England immediately began to languish. To Walton himself, however, the See also:Reformation brought no disappointment. He was consecrated See also:bishop of See also:Chester in See also:December 166o. In the following See also:spring he was one of the commissioners at the See also:Savoy See also:Conference, but took little part in the business. In the autumn of 1661 he paid a short visit to his See also:diocese, and returning to London he died on the 29th of See also:November.
However much Walton was indebted to his helpers, the Polyglot Bible is a great See also:monument of See also:industry and of capacity for directing a vast undertaking, and the Prolegomena (separately reprinted by Dathe, 1777, and by See also:Francis Wranghan, 1825) show See also:judgment as well as learning. The same qualities appear in Walton's Considerator Considered (1659), a reply to the Considerations of John See also:Owen, who thought that the See also:accumulation of material for the revision of the received See also:text tended to See also:atheism. Among Walton's See also:works must also be mentioned an Introductio ad lectionem linguarum orientalium (1654; 2nd ed., 1655), meant to prepare the way for the Polyglot.
