“The clergy keep no Bibles from the laity but such translations as be either not yet approved for good, or such as be already reproved for naught [bad translations or notes] as Wycliff’s was.

So, the clergy was going to decide what Bible the People could read.

Clearly, the People wanted to read Wyclif and Tyndale.

It was a Church matter and the clergy lead the Church.

Some did. Some didn’t. Who among those was interested in being loyal to Christ’s Church? Clearly those who chose to avoid heresy and heretical works. In other words, not the Lollards or Protestants.
