Anglo-saxon Reader Both Poetry & Prose Old English Grammar Vocabulary

N.Y.: Barnes and Company, 1901. — 239 p.In the preparation of this little manual the editors have had in view several things : first, the supply of new and fresh elementary prose texts for the use of students and teachers desirous of varying the Anglo-Saxon primers and readers now before the public ; second, a more complete and practical presentation of working forms in the grammar proper. Along with these items of fresh texts and more detailed grammatical treatment, it seemed appropriate to associate an elementary Syntax and a few Notes, giving explanations and references where these seemed necessary, but leaving to a full Vocabulary more explicit information on particular points.
During the preparation of the work the editors have been especially encouraged and helped by the friendly suggestions of Professors Bright, Mead, M. Calloway, Jr., and Blackburn; and in the first draft of the Vocabulary acknowledgments are due to our friends and pupils, Mr. H. M. Blain and Miss Olive Koss.
The editors would also gratefully acknowledge the kindness of Professor Bright for permission to use the text of his St. Luke and the Andreas legend in this book.
