Wordsworth, John (1843–1911), Bp. of Salisbury from 1885. A grand-nephew of W. Wordsworth, he was one of the best Latin scholars of his day. From 1878 he worked on a critical edition of the Vulgate NT (Mt. to Rom., 1889–1911; minor edition of the whole NT, 1911). As bishop he was an invaluable adviser to Abp. E. W. Benson and an enthusiastic worker in the cause of reunion, especially with the Swedish and Old Catholic Churches. To this end he published two books on the validity of Anglican Ordinations. In 1897 he composed the Latin Responsio sent by the Abps. of Canterbury and York in reply to ‘Apostolicae curae’.
