Textual Scholars:

I am writing something on parallel text editions (like the Norton edition of Wordsworth's The Prelude, 1799, 1805, 1850) and could use your suggestions.

I am looking for the earliest instance of a parallel text edition in English.

I'd also be interested to know which parallel text edition you consider the best (and why) and which is the most used.
