The 'variant a' and 'variant c' copies are available online in page-
image format (scanned from the film) to those whose institutions subscribe
(sorry, Juris!) to ProQuest's Early English Books Online
(http://eebo.chadwyck.com). The Vulgate text in the 'variant a' edition
does not offer a lot of excitement in any case; it offers basically
a combination of the two versions you have:
Ecce sicut oculi servoru~, in manibus dominorum suoru~.
Sicut oculi ancillae in manibus dominae suae: ita oculi
nostri ad Dominu~ Deum nostru~, donec misereatur nostri...

BTW, we have *not* selected the Walton Polyglot for conversion to
full-text searchability; it would require some special attention to do so,
and we could not in any case capture any of the non-Roman alphabets
(Syriac, Aramaic, Hebrew, Greek, Ethiopic, Arabic, Persian, etc.), but
would have to restrict ourselves to the Latin translations included
beside most of these. That's rather put us off doing it at all.
