Darlow & Moule 1604.

Ulfilas (310-381 CE), Apostle of the Goths, translated (or perhaps collaborated with others, serving as the project editor) the gospels into the Gothic language around the year 369. He is also credited with coming up with the Gothic script letterforms. Isaac Vossius obtained a circa 1655 manuscript transcription from Queen Christina's library. "Beyond their interest to the student of textual criticism, these fragments possess special value for the philologist as preserving what is 'by several centuries the oldest specimen of Teutonic speech.'" (Quoted from Darlow & Moule.)
