HENRY SWEET, M.A. + DR. W. ALDIS WRIGHT, M.A. + (_With power to add Workers to their number._) + + =Bankers:= THE UNION BANK OF LONDON, 2, PRINCES STREET, E.C. + +The Early English Text Society was started by Dr. Furnivall in 1864 for +the purpose of bringing the mass of Old English Literature within the +reach of the ordinary student, and of wiping away the reproach under +which England had long rested, of having felt little interest in the +monuments of her early language and life. + +On the starting of the Society, so many Texts of importance were at once +taken in hand by its Editors, that it became necessary in 1867 to open, +besides the _Original Series_ with which the Society began, an _Extra +Series_ which should be mainly devoted to fresh editions of all that is +most valuable in printed MSS. and Caxton’s and other black-letter books, +though first editions of MSS. will not be excluded when the convenience +of issuing them demands their inclusion in the Extra Series. + +During the thirty-nine years of the Society’s existence, it has produced, +with whatever shortcomings, an amount of good solid work for which all +students of our Language, and some of our Literature, must be grateful, +and which has rendered possible the beginnings (at least) of proper +Histories and Dictionaries of that Language and Literature, and has +illustrated the thoughts, the life, the manners and customs of our +forefathers and foremothers. + +But the Society’s experience has shown the very small number of those +inheritors of the speech of Cynewulf, Chaucer, and Shakspere, who care +two guineas a year for the records of that speech. ‘Let the dead past +bury its dead’ is still the cry of Great Britain and her Colonies, and +of America, in the matter of language. The Society has never had money +enough to produce the Texts that could easily have been got ready for +it; and many Editors are now anxious to send to press the work they have +prepared. The necessity has therefore arisen for trying to increase the +number of the Society’s members, and to induce its well-wishers to help +it by gifts of money, either in one sum or by instalments. The Committee +trust that every Member will bring before his or her friends and +acquaintances the Society’s claims for liberal support. Until all Early +English MSS. are printed, no proper History of our Language or Social +Life is possible. + +The Subscription to the Society, which constitutes membership, is £1 +1_s._ a year for the ORIGINAL SERIES, and £1 1_s._ for the EXTRA SERIES, +due in advance on the 1st of JANUARY, and should be paid by Cheque, +Postal Order, or Money-Order, crost ‘Union Bank of London,’ to the +Hon. Secretary, W. A. DALZIEL, Esq., 67, Victoria Rd., Finsbury Park, +London, N. Members who want their Texts posted to them, must add to their +prepaid Subscriptions 1_s._ for the Original Series, and 1_s._ for the +Extra Series, yearly. The Society’s Texts are also sold separately at +the prices put after them in the Lists; but Members can get back-Texts +at one-third less than the List-prices by sending the cash for them in +advance to the Hon. Secretary. + +☞ The Society intends to complete, as soon as its funds will allow, the +Reprints of its out-of-print Texts of the year 1866, and also of nos. 20, +26 and 33. Prof. Skeat has finisht _Partenay_; Dr. McKnight of Ohio _King +Horn_ and _Floris and Blancheflour_; and Dr. Furnivall his _Political, +Religious and Love Poems_ and _Myrc’s Duties of a Parish Priest_. Dr. +Otto Glauning has undertaken _Seinte Marherete_; and Dr. Furnivall has +_Hali Meidenhad_ in type. As the cost of these Reprints, if they were +not needed, would have been devoted to fresh Texts, the Reprints will +be sent to all Members in lieu of such Texts. Though called ‘Reprints,’ +these books are new editions, generally with valuable additions, a fact +not noticed by a few careless receivers of them, who have complained +that they already had the volumes. As the Society’s copies of the +_Facsimile of the Epinal MS._ issued as an Extra Volume in 1883 are +exhausted, Mr. J. H. Hessels, M.A., of St. John’s Coll., Cambridge, has +kindly undertaken an edition of the MS. for the Society. This will be +substituted for the Facsimile as an 1883 book, but will be also issued to +all the present Members. + +[Sidenote: _Original and Extra Series Books 1903-1906._] + +=July 1904.= The Original-Series Texts for 1903 were: No. 122, Part II of +_The Laud MS. Troy-Book_, edited from the unique Laud MS. 595 by Dr. J. +E. Wülfing; and No. 123, Part II of Robert of Brunne’s _Handlyng Synne_, +and its French original, ed. by Dr. F. J. Furnivall. + +The Extra-Series Texts for 1903 are to be: No. LXXXVIII, _Le Morte +Arthur_, in 8-line stanzas, re-edited from the unique MS. Harl. 2252, +by Prof. J. Douglas Bruce (issued), No. LXXXIX, Lydgate’s _Reason and +Sensuality_, edited by Dr. Ernst Sieper, Part II, and No. XC, _English +Fragments from Latin Medieval Service-Books_, edited, and given to the +Society, by Mr. Henry Littlehales. + +The Original-Series Texts for 1904 will be No. 124, t. Hen. V, +_Twenty-six Political and other Poems_ from the Digby MS. 102, &c., +edited by Dr. J. Kail, and No. 125, Part I of the _Medieval Records of +a London City Church_ (St. Mary-at-Hill), A.D. 1420-1559, copied and +edited by Mr. Henry Littlehales from the Church Records in the Guildhall, +the cost of the setting and corrections of the text being generously +borne by its Editor. This book will show the income and outlay of the +church; the drink provided for its Palm-Sunday players, its officers’ +excursions into Kent and Essex, its dealing with the Plague, the disposal +of its goods at the Reformation, &c., &c., and will help our members to +realize the church-life of its time. The third Text will be Part I of +_An Alphabet of Tales_, a very interesting collection, englisht in the +Northern Dialect, about 1440, from the Latin _Alphabetum Narrationum_ by +Etienne de Bésançon, and edited by Mrs. M. M. Banks from the unique MS. +in the King’s Library in the British Museum; the above-named three texts +are now ready for issue. Those for 1905 and 1906 will probably be chosen +from Part II of the _Exeter Book_—Anglo-Saxon Poems from the unique +MS. in Exeter Cathedral—re-edited by Israel Gollancz, M.A.; Part II of +Prof. Dr. Holthausen’s _Vices and Virtues_; Part II of _Jacob’s Well_, +edited by Dr. Brandeis; the Alliterative _Siege of Jerusalem_, edited +by the late Prof. Dr. E. Kölbing and Prof. Dr. Kaluza; an Introduction +and Glossary to the _Minor Poems of the Vernon MS._ by H. Hartley, M.A.; +Alain Chartier’s _Quadrilogue_, edited from the unique MS. Univ. Coll. +Oxford MS. No. 85, by Mr. J. W. H. Atkins of Owen’s College; a Northern +Verse _Chronicle of England_ to 1327 A.D., in 42,000 lines, about 1420 +A.D., edited by M. L. Perrin, B.A.; Prof. Bruce’s Introduction to _The +English Conquest of Ireland_, Part II; and Dr. Furnivall’s edition of +the _Lichfield Gilds_, which is all printed, and waits only for the +Introduction, that Prof. E. C. K. Gonner has kindly undertaken to write +for the book. Canon Wordsworth of Marlborough has given the Society a +copy of the Leofric Canonical Rule, Latin and Anglo-Saxon, Parker MS. +191, C. C. C. Cambridge, and Prof. Napier will edit it, with a fragment +of the englisht Capitula of Bp. Theodulf. The _Coventry Leet Book_ +is being copied for the Society by Miss M. Dormer Harris—helpt by a +contribution from the Common Council of the City,—and will be publisht by +the Society (Miss Harris editing), as its contribution to our knowledge +of the provincial city life of the 15th century. + +Dr. Brie of Berlin has undertaken to edit the prose _Brut_ or _Chronicle +of Britain_ attributed to Sir John Mandeville, and printed by Caxton. He +has already examined more than 100 English MSS. and several French ones, +to get the best text, and find out its source. + +The Extra-Series Texts for 1904 will be chosen from Lydgate’s +_DeGuilleville’s Pilgrimage of the Life of Man_, Part III, edited by +Miss Locock; Dr. M. Konrath’s re-edition of _William of Shoreham’s +Poems_, Part II; Dr. E. A. Kock’s edition of Lovelich’s _Merlin_ from the +unique MS. in Corpus Christi Coll., Cambridge; the _Macro Plays_, edited +from Mr. Gurney’s MS. by Dr. Furnivall and A. W. Pollard, M.A.; Prof. +Erdmann’s re-edition of Lydgate’s _Siege of Thebes_ (issued also by the +Chaucer Society); Miss Rickert’s re-edition of the Romance of _Emare_; +Prof. I. Gollancz’s re-edition of two Alliterative Poems, _Winner and +Waster_, &c., ab. 1360, lately issued for the Roxburghe Club; Dr. Norman +Moore’s re-edition of _The Book of the Foundation of St. Bartholomew’s +Hospital, London_, from the unique MS. ab. 1425, which gives an account +of the Founder, Rahere, and the miraculous cures wrought at the Hospital; +_The Craft of Nombrynge_, with other of the earliest englisht Treatises +on Arithmetic, edited by R. Steele, B.A.; and Miss Warren’s two-text +edition of _The Dance of Death_ from the Ellesmere and other MSS. + +These Extra-Series Texts ought to be completed by their Editors: the +Second Part of the prose Romance of _Melusine_—Introduction, with ten +facsimiles of the best woodblocks of the old foreign black-letter +editions, Glossary, &c., by A. K. Donald, B.A. (now in India); and a +new edition of the famous Early-English Dictionary (English and Latin), +_Promptorium Parvulorum_, from the Winchester MS., ab. 1440 A.D.: in +this, the Editor, the Rev. A. L. Mayhew, M.A., will follow and print his +MS. not only in its arrangement of nouns first, and verbs second, under +every letter of the Alphabet, but also in its giving of the flexions of +the words. The Society’s edition will thus be the first modern one that +really represents its original, a point on which Mr. Mayhew’s insistence +will meet with the sympathy of all our Members. + +[Sidenote: _Texts preparing: The Texts for 1906, 1907 &c._] + +The Texts for the Extra Series in 1906 and 1907 will be chosen from _The +Three Kings’ Sons_, Part II, the Introduction &c. by Prof. Dr. Leon +Kellner; Part II of _The Chester Plays_, re-edited from the MSS., with a +full collation of the formerly missing Devonshire MS., by Mr. G. England +and Dr. Matthews; the Parallel-Text of the only two MSS. of the _Owl and +Nightingale_, edited by Mr. G. F. H. Sykes (at press); Prof. Jespersen’s +editions of John Hart’s _Orthographie_ (MS. 1551 A.D.; blackletter 1569), +and _Method to teach Reading_, 1570; Deguilleville’s _Pilgrimage of the +Sowle_, in English prose, edited by Prof. Dr. L. Kellner. (For the three +prose versions of _The Pilgrimage of the Life of Man_—two English, one +French—an Editor is wanted.) Members are askt to realise the fact that +the Society has now 50 years’ work on its Lists,—at its present rate of +production,—and that there is from 100 to 200 more years’ work to come +after that. The year 2000 will not see finisht all the Texts that the +Society ought to print. The need of more Members and money is pressing. +Offers of help from willing Editors have continually to be declined +because the Society has no funds to print their Texts. + +An urgent appeal is hereby made to Members to increase the list of +Subscribers to the E. E. Text Society. It is nothing less than a scandal +that the Hellenic Society should have nearly 1000 members, while the +Early English Text Society has not 300! + +[Sidenote: _Deguilleville._] + +Before his death in 1895, Mr. G. N. Currie was preparing an edition of +the 15th and 16th century Prose Versions of Guillaume de Deguilleville’s +_Pilgrimage of the Life of Man_, with the French prose version by Jean +Gallopes, from Lord Aldenham’s MS., he having generously promist to pay +the extra cost of printing the French text, and engraving one or two +of the illuminations in his MS. But Mr. Currie, when on his deathbed, +charged a friend to burn _all_ his MSS. which lay in a corner of his +room, and unluckily all the E. E. T. S.’s copies of the Deguilleville +prose versions were with them, and were burnt with them, so that the +Society will be put to the cost of fresh copies, Mr. Currie having died +in debt. + +Guillaume de Deguilleville, monk of the Cistercian abbey of Chaalis, in +the diocese of Senlis, wrote his first verse _Pèlerinaige de l’Homme_ +in 1330-1 when he was 36.[1] Twenty-five (or six) years after, in 1355, +he revised his poem, and issued a second version of it,[2] a revision +of which was printed ab. 1500. Of the prose representative of the first +version, 1330-1, a prose Englishing, about 1430 A.D., was edited by Mr. +Aldis Wright for the Roxburghe Club in 1869, from MS. Ff. 5. 30 in the +Cambridge University Library. Other copies of this prose English are +in the Hunterian Museum, Glasgow, Q. 2. 25; Sion College, London; and +the Laud Collection in the Bodleian, no. 740.[3] A copy in the Northern +dialect is MS. G. 21, in St. John’s Coll., Cambridge, and this is the +MS. which will be edited for the E. E. Text Society. The Laud MS. 740 +was somewhat condenst and modernised, in the 17th century, into MS. Ff. +6. 30, in the Cambridge University Library:[4] “The Pilgrime or the +Pilgrimage of Man in this World,” copied by Will. Baspoole, whose copy +“was verbatim written by Walter Parker, 1645, and from thence transcribed +by G. G. 1649; and from thence by W. A. 1655.” This last copy may have +been read by, or its story reported to, Bunyan, and may have been the +groundwork of his _Pilgrim’s Progress_. It will be edited for the E. +E. T. Soc., its text running under the earlier English, as in Mr. +Herrtage’s edition of the _Gesta Romanorum_ for the Society. In February +1464,[5] Jean Gallopes—a clerk of Angers, afterwards chaplain to John, +Duke of Bedford, Regent of France—turned Deguilleville’s first verse +_Pèlerinaige_ into a prose _Pèlerinage de la vie humaine_.[6] By the +kindness of Lord Aldenham, as above mentiond, Gallopes’s French text will +be printed opposite the early prose northern Englishing in the Society’s +edition. + +The Second Version of Deguilleville’s _Pèlerinaige de l’Homme_, A.D. 1355 +or -6, was englisht in verse by Lydgate in 1426. Of Lydgate’s poem, the +larger part is in the Cotton MS. Vitellius C. xiii (leaves 2-308). This +MS. leaves out Chaucer’s englishing of Deguilleville’s _A B C_ or _Prayer +to the Virgin_, of which the successive stanzas start with A, B, C, and +run all thro’ the alphabet; and it has 2 main gaps, besides many small +ones from the tops of leaves being burnt in the Cotton fire. All these +gaps (save the A B C) have been fild up from the Stowe MS. 952 (which old +John Stowe completed) and from the end of the other imperfect MS. Cotton, +Tiberius A vii. Thanks to the diligence of the old Elizabethan tailor +and manuscript-lover, a complete text of Lydgate’s poem can be given, +though that of an inserted theological prose treatise is incomplete. The +British Museum French MSS. (Harleian 4399,[7] and Additional 22,937[8] +and 25,594[9]) are all of the First Version. + +Besides his first _Pèlerinaige de l’homme_ in its two versions, +Deguilleville wrote a second, “de l’ame separee du corps,” and a third, +“de nostre seigneur Iesus.” Of the second, a prose Englishing of 1413, +_The Pilgrimage of the Sowle_ (with poems by Hoccleve, already printed +for the Society with that author’s _Regement of Princes_), exists in the +Egerton MS. 615,[10] at Hatfield, Cambridge (Univ. Kk. 1. 7, and Caius), +Oxford (Univ. Coll. and Corpus), and in Caxton’s edition of 1483. This +version has ‘somewhat of addicions’ as Caxton says, and some shortenings +too, as the maker of both, the first translater, tells us in the MSS. +Caxton leaves out the earlier englisher’s interesting Epilog in the +Egerton MS. This prose englishing of the _Sowle_ will be edited for the +Society by Prof. Dr. Leon Kellner after that of the _Man_ is finisht, and +will have Gallopes’s French opposite it, from Lord Aldenham’s MS., as his +gift to the Society. Of the Pilgrimage of Jesus, no englishing is known. + +[Sidenote: _Anglo-Saxon Psalters._] + +As to the MS. Anglo-Saxon Psalters, Dr. Hy. Sweet has edited the oldest +MS., the Vespasian, in his _Oldest English Texts_ for the Society, and +Mr. Harsley has edited the latest, c. 1150, Eadwine’s Canterbury Psalter. +The other MSS., except the Paris one, being interlinear versions,—some +of the Roman-Latin redaction, and some of the Gallican,—Prof. Logeman +has prepared for press, a Parallel-Text edition of the first twelve +Psalms, to start the complete work. He will do his best to get the Paris +Psalter—tho’ it is not an interlinear one—into this collective edition; +but the additional matter, especially in the Verse-Psalms, is very +difficult to manage. If the Paris text cannot be parallelised, it will +form a separate volume. The Early English Psalters are all independent +versions, and will follow separately in due course. + +[Sidenote: _More Money wanted._] + +Through the good offices of the Examiners, some of the books for the +Early-English Examinations of the University of London will be chosen +from the Society’s publications, the Committee having undertaken to +supply such books to students at a large reduction in price. The net +profits from these sales will be applied to the Society’s Reprints. + +Members are reminded that _fresh Subscribers are always wanted_, and +that the Committee can at any time, on short notice, send to press an +additional Thousand Pounds’ worth of work. + +[Sidenote: _Saints’ Lives._] + +The Subscribers to the Original Series must be prepared for the issue +of the whole of the Early English _Lives of Saints_, sooner or later. +The Society cannot leave out any of them, even though some are dull. The +Sinners would doubtless be much more interesting. But in many Saints’ +Lives will be found valuable incidental details of our forefathers’ +social state, and all are worthful for the history of our language. The +Lives may be lookt on as the religious romances or story-books of their +period. + +The Standard Collection of Saints’ Lives in the Corpus and Ashmole MSS., +the Harleian MS. 2277, &c. will repeat the Laud set, our No. 87, with +additions, and in right order. (The foundation MS. (Laud 108) had to be +printed first, to prevent quite unwieldy collations.) The Supplementary +Lives from the Vernon and other MSS. will form one or two separate +volumes. + +Besides the Saints’ Lives, Trevisa’s englishing of _Bartholomæus de +Proprietatibus Rerum_, the mediæval Cyclopædia of Science, &c., will +be the Society’s next big undertaking. Dr. R. von Fleischhacker will +edit it. Prof. Napier of Oxford, wishing to have the whole of our MS. +Anglo-Saxon in type, and accessible to students, will edit for the +Society all the unprinted and other Anglo-Saxon Homilies which are not +included in Thorpe’s edition of Ælfric’s prose,[11] Dr. Morris’s of the +Blickling Homilies, and Prof. Skeat’s of Ælfric’s Metrical Homilies. +The late Prof. Kölbing left complete his text, for the Society, of the +_Ancren Riwle_, from the best MS., with collations of the other four, and +this will be edited for the Society by Dr. Thümmler. Mr. Harvey means to +prepare an edition of the three MSS. of the _Earliest English Metrical +Psalter_, one of which was edited by the late Mr. Stevenson for the +Surtees Society. + +Members of the Society will learn with pleasure that its example has been +followed, not only by the Old French Text Society which has done such +admirable work under its founders Profs. Paul Meyer and Gaston Paris, but +also by the Early Russian Text Society, which was set on foot in 1877, +and has since issued many excellent editions of old MS. Chronicles, &c. + +Members will also note with pleasure the annexation of large tracts of +our Early English territory by the important German contingent, the +late Professors Zupitza and Kölbing, the living Hausknecht, Einenkel, +Haenisch, Kaluza, Hupe, Adam, Holthausen, Schick, Herzfeld, Brandeis, +Sieper, Konrath, Wülfing, &c. Scandinavia has also sent us Prof. Erdmann +and Dr. E. A. Kock; Holland, Prof. H. Logeman, who is now working in +Belgium; France, Prof. Paul Meyer—with Gaston Paris as adviser (alas, +now dead);—Italy, Prof. Lattanzi; Austria, Dr. von Fleischhacker; while +America is represented by the late Prof. Child, by Dr. Mary Noyes +Colvin, Miss Rickert, Profs. Mead, McKnight, Triggs, Perrin, &c. The +sympathy, the ready help, which the Society’s work has cald forth from +the Continent and the United States, have been among the pleasantest +experiences of the Society’s life, a real aid and cheer amid all troubles +and discouragements. All our Members are grateful for it, and recognise +that the bond their work has woven between them and the lovers of +language and antiquity across the seas is one of the most welcome results +of the Society’s efforts. + + +=ORIGINAL SERIES.= + + 1. =Early English Alliterative Poems=, ab. 1360 A.D., ed.

The Society has +never had money enough to produce the Texts that could easily have been got ready +for it; and many Editors are now anxious to send to press the work they have prepared. +The necessity has therefore arisen for trying to increase the number of the +Society’s members, and to induce its well-wishers to help it by gifts of money, either +in one sum or by instalments. The Committee trust that every Member will bring +before his or her friends and acquaintances the Society’s claims for liberal support. +Until all Early English MSS. are printed, no proper History of our Language or Social +Life is possible.</p> + +<p>The Subscription to the Society, which constitutes membership, is £1 1<i>s.</i> a year +for the <span class="smallcaps">Original Series</span>, and £1 1<i>s.</i> for the <span class="smallcaps">Extra Series</span>, due in advance on the 1st of +<span class="smallcaps">January</span>, and should be paid by Cheque, Postal Order, or Money-Order, crost ‘Union +Bank of London,’ to the Hon. Secretary, <span class="smallcaps">W. A. Dalziel</span>, Esq., 67, Victoria Rd., Finsbury +Park, London, N. Members who want their Texts posted to them, must add to +their prepaid Subscriptions 1<i>s.</i> for the Original Series, and 1<i>s.</i> for the Extra Series, +yearly. The Society’s Texts are also sold separately at the prices put after them in +the Lists; but Members can get back-Texts at one-third less than the List-prices by +sending the cash for them in advance to the Hon. Secretary.</p> + +<span class="pagenum">3</span> + +<p>☞ The Society intends to complete, as soon as its funds will allow, the Reprints of its +out-of-print Texts of the year 1866, and also of nos. 20, 26 and 33. Prof. Skeat has finisht +<i>Partenay</i>; Dr. M<sup>c</sup>Knight of Ohio <i>King Horn</i> and <i>Floris and Blancheflour</i>; and Dr. +Furnivall his <i>Political, Religious and Love Poems</i> and <i>Myrc’s Duties of a Parish Priest</i>. +Dr. Otto Glauning has undertaken <i>Seinte Marherete</i>; and Dr. Furnivall has <i>Hali Meidenhad</i> +in type. As the cost of these Reprints, if they were not needed, would have been +devoted to fresh Texts, the Reprints will be sent to all Members in lieu of such Texts. +Though called ‘Reprints,’ these books are new editions, generally with valuable additions, +a fact not noticed by a few careless receivers of them, who have complained that they +already had the volumes. As the Society’s copies of the <i>Facsimile of the Epinal MS.</i> issued +as an Extra Volume in 1883 are exhausted, Mr. J. H. Hessels, M.A., of St. John’s Coll., +Cambridge, has kindly undertaken an edition of the MS. for the Society. This will be substituted +for the Facsimile as an 1883 book, but will be also issued to all the present Members.</p> + +<p class="headnote"> +Original and Extra Series Books 1903-1906.</p> + +<p><b>July 1904.</b> The Original-Series Texts for 1903 were: No. 122, Part II of <i>The Laud MS. +Troy-Book</i>, edited from the unique Laud MS. 595 by Dr. J.

This book will +show the income and outlay of the church; the drink provided for its Palm-Sunday +players, its officers’ excursions into Kent and Essex, its dealing with the Plague, the disposal +of its goods at the Reformation, &c., &c., and will help our members to realize the church-life +of its time. The third Text will be Part I of <i>An Alphabet of Tales</i>, a very interesting +collection, englisht in the Northern Dialect, about 1440, from the Latin <i>Alphabetum Narrationum</i> +by Etienne de Bésançon, and edited by Mrs. M. M. Banks from the unique MS. in +the King’s Library in the British Museum; the above-named three texts are now ready for +issue. Those for 1905 and 1906 will probably be chosen from Part II of the <i>Exeter Book</i>—Anglo-Saxon +Poems from the unique MS. in Exeter Cathedral—re-edited by Israel Gollancz, +M.A.; Part II of Prof. Dr. Holthausen’s <i>Vices and Virtues</i>; Part II of <i>Jacob’s Well</i>, edited +by Dr. Brandeis; the Alliterative <i>Siege of Jerusalem</i>, edited by the late Prof. Dr. E. Kölbing +and Prof. Dr. Kaluza; an Introduction and Glossary to the <i>Minor Poems of the Vernon +MS.</i> by H. Hartley, M.A.; Alain Chartier’s <i>Quadrilogue</i>, edited from the unique MS. Univ. +Coll. Oxford MS. No. 85, by Mr. J. W. H. Atkins of Owen’s College; a Northern Verse +<i>Chronicle of England</i> to 1327 <span class="smallroman">A.D.</span>, in 42,000 lines, about 1420 <span class="smallroman">A.D.</span>, edited by M. L. Perrin, +B.A.; Prof. Bruce’s Introduction to <i>The English Conquest of Ireland</i>, Part II; and Dr. +Furnivall’s edition of the <i>Lichfield Gilds</i>, which is all printed, and waits only for the +Introduction, that Prof. E. C. K. Gonner has kindly undertaken to write for the book. +Canon Wordsworth of Marlborough has given the Society a copy of the Leofric Canonical +Rule, Latin and Anglo-Saxon, Parker MS. 191, C. C. C. Cambridge, and Prof. Napier will +edit it, with a fragment of the englisht Capitula of Bp. Theodulf. The <i>Coventry Leet Book</i> +is being copied for the Society by Miss M. Dormer Harris—helpt by a contribution from +the Common Council of the City,—and will be publisht by the Society (Miss Harris editing), +as its contribution to our knowledge of the provincial city life of the 15th century.</p> + +<p>Dr. Brie of Berlin has undertaken to edit the prose <i>Brut</i> or <i>Chronicle of Britain</i> +attributed to Sir John Mandeville, and printed by Caxton. He has already examined more +than 100 English MSS. and several French ones, to get the best text, and find out its source.</p> + +<p>The Extra-Series Texts for 1904 will be chosen from Lydgate’s <i>DeGuilleville’s +Pilgrimage of the Life of Man</i>, Part III, edited by Miss Locock; Dr. M. Konrath’s +re-edition of <i>William of Shoreham’s Poems</i>, Part II; Dr. E. A. Kock’s edition of Lovelich’s +<i>Merlin</i> from the unique MS. in Corpus Christi Coll., Cambridge; the <i>Macro Plays</i>, edited +from Mr. Gurney’s MS. by Dr. Furnivall and A. W. Pollard, M.A.; Prof. Erdmann’s re-edition +of Lydgate’s <i>Siege of Thebes</i> (issued also by the Chaucer Society); Miss Rickert’s re-edition of +the Romance of <i>Emare</i>; Prof. I. Gollancz’s re-edition of two Alliterative Poems, <i>Winner and +Waster</i>, &c., ab. 1360, lately issued for the Roxburghe Club; Dr. Norman Moore’s re-edition +of <i>The Book of the Foundation of St. Bartholomew’s Hospital, London</i>, from the unique MS. +ab. 1425, which gives an account of the Founder, Rahere, and the miraculous cures wrought +at the Hospital; <i>The Craft of Nombrynge</i>, with other of the earliest englisht Treatises +on Arithmetic, edited by R. Steele, B.A.; and Miss Warren’s two-text edition of <i>The Dance +of Death</i> from the Ellesmere and other MSS.</p> + +<p>These Extra-Series Texts ought to be completed by their Editors: the Second Part of +the prose Romance of <i>Melusine</i>—Introduction, with ten facsimiles of the best woodblocks of +the old foreign black-letter editions, Glossary, &c., by A. K. Donald, B.A. (now in India); +<span class="pagenum">4</span> +and a new edition of the famous Early-English Dictionary (English and Latin), <i>Promptorium +Parvulorum</i>, from the Winchester MS., ab. 1440 <span class="smallroman">A.D.</span>: in this, the Editor, the Rev. A. L. +Mayhew, M.A., will follow and print his MS. not only in its arrangement of nouns first, and +verbs second, under every letter of the Alphabet, but also in its giving of the flexions of the +words. The Society’s edition will thus be the first modern one that really represents its +original, a point on which Mr. Mayhew’s insistence will meet with the sympathy of all +our Members.</p> + +<p class="headnote"> +Texts preparing: The Texts for 1906, 1907 &c.</p> + +<p>The Texts for the Extra Series in 1906 and 1907 will be chosen from <i>The Three Kings’ +Sons</i>, Part II, the Introduction &c. by Prof. Dr. Leon Kellner; Part II of <i>The Chester Plays</i>, +re-edited from the MSS., with a full collation of the formerly missing Devonshire MS., by +Mr. G. England and Dr. Matthews; the Parallel-Text of the only two MSS. of the <i>Owl and +Nightingale</i>, edited by Mr. G. F. H. Sykes (at press); Prof. Jespersen’s editions of John +Hart’s <i>Orthographie</i> (MS. 1551 <span class="smallroman">A.D.</span>; blackletter 1569), and <i>Method to teach Reading</i>, 1570; +Deguilleville’s <i>Pilgrimage of the Sowle</i>, in English prose, edited by Prof. Dr. L. Kellner. +(For the three prose versions of <i>The Pilgrimage of the Life of Man</i>—two English, one +French—an Editor is wanted.) Members are askt to realise the fact that the Society has +now 50 years’ work on its Lists,—at its present rate of production,—and that there is from +100 to 200 more years’ work to come after that. The year 2000 will not see finisht all the +Texts that the Society ought to print. The need of more Members and money is pressing. +Offers of help from willing Editors have continually to be declined because the Society has +no funds to print their Texts.</p> + +<p>An urgent appeal is hereby made to Members to increase the list of Subscribers to the +E. E. Text Society. It is nothing less than a scandal that the Hellenic Society should have +nearly 1000 members, while the Early English Text Society has not 300!</p> + +<p class="headnote"> +Deguilleville.</p> + +<p>Before his death in 1895, Mr. G. N. Currie was preparing an edition of the 15th and 16th +century Prose Versions of Guillaume de Deguilleville’s <i>Pilgrimage of the Life of Man</i>, with +the French prose version by Jean Gallopes, from Lord Aldenham’s MS., he having generously +promist to pay the extra cost of printing the French text, and engraving one or two of the +illuminations in his MS. But Mr. Currie, when on his deathbed, charged a friend to burn +<i>all</i> his MSS. which lay in a corner of his room, and unluckily all the E. E. T. S.’s copies of +the Deguilleville prose versions were with them, and were burnt with them, so that the +Society will be put to the cost of fresh copies, Mr. Currie having died in debt.</p> + +<p>Guillaume de Deguilleville, monk of the Cistercian abbey of Chaalis, in the diocese of +Senlis, wrote his first verse <i>Pèlerinaige de l’Homme</i> in 1330-1 when he was 36.<a class="tag" href="#eets_note_1" id="eets_tag_1">1</a> Twenty-five +(or six) years after, in 1355, he revised his poem, and issued a second version of it,<a class="tag" href="#eets_note_2" id="eets_tag_2">2</a> a revision +of which was printed ab. 1500. Of the prose representative of the first version, 1330-1, +a prose Englishing, about 1430 <span class="smallroman">A.D.</span>, was edited by Mr. Aldis Wright for the Roxburghe Club +in 1869, from MS. Ff. 5. 30 in the Cambridge University Library. Other copies of this prose +English are in the Hunterian Museum, Glasgow, Q. 2. 25; Sion College, London; and the +Laud Collection in the Bodleian, no. 740.<a class="tag" href="#eets_note_3" id="eets_tag_3">3</a> A copy in the Northern dialect is MS. G. 21, in +St. John’s Coll., Cambridge, and this is the MS. which will be edited for the E. E. Text +Society. The Laud MS. 740 was somewhat condenst and modernised, in the 17th century, +into MS. Ff. 6. 30, in the Cambridge University Library:<a class="tag" href="#eets_note_4" id="eets_tag_4">4</a> “The Pilgrime or the Pilgrimage +of Man in this World,” copied by Will. Baspoole, whose copy “was verbatim +written by Walter Parker, 1645, and from thence transcribed by G. G. 1649; and from thence +by W. A. 1655.” This last copy may have been read by, or its story reported to, Bunyan, +and may have been the groundwork of his <i>Pilgrim’s Progress</i>. It will be edited for the E. +E. T. Soc., its text running under the earlier English, as in Mr. Herrtage’s edition of the +<i>Gesta Romanorum</i> for the Society. In February 1464,<a class="tag" href="#eets_note_5" id="eets_tag_5">5</a> Jean Gallopes—a clerk of Angers, +afterwards chaplain to John, Duke of Bedford, Regent of France—turned Deguilleville’s first +verse <i>Pèlerinaige</i> into a prose <i>Pèlerinage de la vie humaine</i>.<a class="tag" href="#eets_note_6" id="eets_tag_6">6</a> By the kindness of Lord Aldenham, +as above mentiond, Gallopes’s French text will be printed opposite the early prose +northern Englishing in the Society’s edition.</p> + +<p>The Second Version of Deguilleville’s <i>Pèlerinaige de l’Homme</i>, <span class="smallroman">A.D.</span> 1355 or -6, was englisht +in verse by Lydgate in 1426. Of Lydgate’s poem, the larger part is in the Cotton MS. +Vitellius C. xiii (leaves 2-308). This MS. leaves out Chaucer’s englishing of Deguilleville’s +<i>A B C</i> or <i>Prayer to the Virgin</i>, of which the successive stanzas start with A, B, C, and run all +thro’ the alphabet; and it has 2 main gaps, besides many small ones from the tops of leaves +being burnt in the Cotton fire. All these gaps (save the A B C) have been fild up from the +Stowe MS. 952 (which old John Stowe completed) and from the end of the other imperfect +MS. Cotton, Tiberius A vii. Thanks to the diligence of the old Elizabethan tailor and +<span class="pagenum">5</span> +manuscript-lover, a complete text of Lydgate’s poem can be given, though that of an inserted +theological prose treatise is incomplete. The British Museum French MSS. (Harleian 4399,<a class="tag" href="#eets_note_7" id="eets_tag_7">7</a> +and Additional 22,937<a class="tag" href="#eets_note_8" id="eets_tag_8">8</a> and 25,594<a class="tag" href="#eets_note_9" id="eets_tag_9">9</a>) are all of the First Version.</p> + +<p>Besides his first <i>Pèlerinaige de l’homme</i> in its two versions, Deguilleville wrote a second, +“de l’ame separee du corps,” and a third, “de nostre seigneur Iesus.” Of the second, a prose +Englishing of 1413, <i>The Pilgrimage of the Sowle</i> (with poems by Hoccleve, already printed +for the Society with that author’s <i>Regement of Princes</i>), exists in the Egerton MS. 615,<a class="tag" href="#eets_note_10" id="eets_tag_10">10</a> at +Hatfield, Cambridge (Univ. Kk. 1. 7, and Caius), Oxford (Univ. Coll. and Corpus), and in Caxton’s +edition of 1483. This version has ‘somewhat of addicions’ as Caxton says, and some +shortenings too, as the maker of both, the first translater, tells us in the MSS. Caxton leaves +out the earlier englisher’s interesting Epilog in the Egerton MS. This prose englishing of +the <i>Sowle</i> will be edited for the Society by Prof. Dr. Leon Kellner after that of the <i>Man</i> is +finisht, and will have Gallopes’s French opposite it, from Lord Aldenham’s MS., as his gift +to the Society. Of the Pilgrimage of Jesus, no englishing is known.</p> + +<p class="headnote"> +Anglo-Saxon Psalters.</p> + +<p>As to the MS. Anglo-Saxon Psalters, Dr. Hy. Sweet has edited the oldest MS., the +Vespasian, in his <i>Oldest English Texts</i> for the Society, and Mr. Harsley has edited the +latest, c. 1150, Eadwine’s Canterbury Psalter. The other MSS., except the Paris one, being +interlinear versions,—some of the Roman-Latin redaction, and some of the Gallican,—Prof. +Logeman has prepared for press, a Parallel-Text edition of the first twelve Psalms, to start the +complete work. He will do his best to get the Paris Psalter—tho’ it is not an interlinear +one—into this collective edition; but the additional matter, especially in the Verse-Psalms, +is very difficult to manage. If the Paris text cannot be parallelised, it will form a separate +volume. The Early English Psalters are all independent versions, and will follow separately +in due course.</p> + +<p class="headnote"> +More Money wanted.</p> + +<p>Through the good offices of the Examiners, some of the books for the Early-English Examinations +of the University of London will be chosen from the Society’s publications, the +Committee having undertaken to supply such books to students at a large reduction in price. +The net profits from these sales will be applied to the Society’s Reprints.</p> + +<p>Members are reminded that <i>fresh Subscribers are always wanted</i>, and that the Committee +can at any time, on short notice, send to press an additional Thousand Pounds’ worth of work.</p> + +<p class="headnote"> +Saints’ Lives.</p> + +<p>The Subscribers to the Original Series must be prepared for the issue of the whole of the +Early English <i>Lives of Saints</i>, sooner or later. The Society cannot leave out any of them, +even though some are dull. The Sinners would doubtless be much more interesting. But in +many Saints’ Lives will be found valuable incidental details of our forefathers’ social state, +and all are worthful for the history of our language. The Lives may be lookt on as the +religious romances or story-books of their period.</p> + +<p>The Standard Collection of Saints’ Lives in the Corpus and Ashmole MSS., the Harleian +MS. 2277, &c. will repeat the Laud set, our No. 87, with additions, and in right order. (The +foundation MS. (Laud 108) had to be printed first, to prevent quite unwieldy collations.) The +Supplementary Lives from the Vernon and other MSS. will form one or two separate volumes.</p> + +<p>Besides the Saints’ Lives, Trevisa’s englishing of <i>Bartholomæus de Proprietatibus Rerum</i>, +the mediæval Cyclopædia of Science, &c., will be the Society’s next big undertaking. Dr. +R. von Fleischhacker will edit it. Prof. Napier of Oxford, wishing to have the whole of +our MS. Anglo-Saxon in type, and accessible to students, will edit for the Society all the +unprinted and other Anglo-Saxon Homilies which are not included in Thorpe’s edition of +Ælfric’s prose,<a class="tag" href="#eets_note_11" id="eets_tag_11">11</a> Dr. Morris’s of the Blickling Homilies, and Prof. Skeat’s of Ælfric’s Metrical +Homilies. The late Prof. Kölbing left complete his text, for the Society, of the <i>Ancren +Riwle</i>, from the best MS., with collations of the other four, and this will be edited for the +Society by Dr. Thümmler. Mr. Harvey means to prepare an edition of the three MSS. of +the <i>Earliest English Metrical Psalter</i>, one of which was edited by the late Mr. Stevenson +for the Surtees Society.</p> + +<p>Members of the Society will learn with pleasure that its example has been followed, not +only by the Old French Text Society which has done such admirable work under its founders +Profs. Paul Meyer and Gaston Paris, but also by the Early Russian Text Society, which was +set on foot in 1877, and has since issued many excellent editions of old MS. Chronicles, &c.</p> + +<p>Members will also note with pleasure the annexation of large tracts of our Early English +territory by the important German contingent, the late Professors Zupitza and Kölbing, the +living Hausknecht, Einenkel, Haenisch, Kaluza, Hupe, Adam, Holthausen, Schick, Herzfeld, +Brandeis, Sieper, Konrath, Wülfing, &c. Scandinavia has also sent us Prof. Erdmann and +Dr. E. A. Kock; Holland, Prof. H. Logeman, who is now working in Belgium; France, Prof. +<span class="pagenum">6</span> +Paul Meyer—with Gaston Paris as adviser (alas, now dead);—Italy, Prof. Lattanzi; Austria, +Dr. von Fleischhacker; while America is represented by the late Prof. Child, by Dr. Mary Noyes +Colvin, Miss Rickert, Profs. Mead, McKnight, Triggs, Perrin, &c. The sympathy, the ready +help, which the Society’s work has cald forth from the Continent and the United States, +have been among the pleasantest experiences of the Society’s life, a real aid and cheer amid +all troubles and discouragements. All our Members are grateful for it, and recognise that +the bond their work has woven between them and the lovers of language and antiquity +across the seas is one of the most welcome results of the Society’s efforts.</p> + +<h3> <a id="eets_original"> +<b>ORIGINAL SERIES.</b></a></h3> + +<table data-summary="EETS titles"> +<tbody><tr> +<td><p>1. <b>Early English Alliterative Poems</b>, ab. 1360 <span class="smallroman">A.D.</span>, ed.
