W. SINGER.</h3> + +<hr style="width: 45%;" /> + +<h4>LONDON:<br /> +PRINTED BY LUKE JAMES HANSARD & CO.</h4> + +<h5>M.DCCC.XLV.</h5> + +<hr style="width: 65%;" /> + +<p><i>The student of our early literature and language is indebted to the +zeal of Sir Thomas Phillipps, for the discovery of the following +interesting Fragment, which appears to have formed part of a volume that +contained Ælfric's Grammar and Glossary, probably of the Twelfth +Century. The fragments were discovered among the archives of Worcester +Cathedral; and in 1836 Sir Thomas Phillipps printed the whole of them in +folio. I know not whether the form or the typographical arrangement has +been the cause of the neglect of this publication; but it has escaped +both Mr. Wright and Mr. Thorpe. The former, in his interesting edition +of "The Latin Poems of Walter de Mapes," where he has given the literary +history of this legend with extracts, has not even referred to our +fragment; nor has Mr. Thorpe adverted to it in his publication of the +"Codex Exoniensis," which contains an Anglo-Saxon poem of the same kind, +with which it is interesting to compare this later version of the +legend. There is a portion of another semi-Saxon poem, entitled "The +Grave," printed in Mr. Conybeare's "Illustrations," and by Mr. Thorpe in +his "Analecta Anglo-Saxonica," which appears to be by the same hand, or +at any rate of the same school and age. Indeed some of the lines and +thoughts are identical with passages of the following poem. Mr. Thorpe +has justly called "The Grave" a singularly impressive and almost +appalling fragment; expressions equally characteristic of that with +which the reader is here presented.</i></p> + +<p><i>This impressive character, coupled with the interest which the fragment +possesses, as a specimen of the moral poetry of our ancestors, and as +throwing light upon the transition of our language from Saxon to +English, has been the motive for producing it in a more legible form +than that in which it first appeared.</i></p> + +<p><i>In one of the smaller poems (No. V.), printed by Mr. Wright with the +Owl and the Nightingale, from the Cottonian MS. Calig. A. ix. "The sorie +sowle maketh hire mone," in language not dissimilar to that used in the +following fragment; and the dreary imagery of the house appointed for +all living, and the punishment which awaits a wicked life at its close, +are painted in an equally fearful manner.</i></p> + +<p><i>Mr. Thorpe points to an Anglo-Saxon prose Homily as the original of the +poem on the same theme in the Exeter MS., which is repeated, with some +variation, in the Vercelli Codex. In a rude and simple age this dramatic +way of awakening the sinner to a sense of his perilous state, was +perhaps the most effective that could have been chosen, and it was +naturally a favorite with the moral and religious teachers for some +centuries. M. Karajan, in a very pleasing little publication +(Frülingsgabe für freunde Alterer Literatur, Wien 1839) has printed the +"Visio Philiberti," a Latin poem in dialogue on this subject, with two +old German versions; and the notes contain some interesting information +relating to similar compositions; but Mr. Wright's volume, before +referred to, contains ample illustrations of the legend in all +languages.</i></p> + +<p><i>The fragment here given, it will be seen, is very defective. An attempt +has been made to supply words which were wanting, from the mutilation of +the MS. leaves; but what is engrafted on the original is scrupulously +distinguished by the Italic character. A version has also been added, +the imperfections of which those who are acquainted with the +difficulties of such renderings will best know how to excuse.</i></p> + +<p><i>The language of this poem seems to have a striking resemblance to that +of one of the MSS. of Laȝamon, and we may hope, when the lovers of +our early lore shall be favoured with the long and anxiously expected +edition of that work by Sir Frederick Madden, that much light will be +thrown upon the history of the transitions of our language.</i></p> + +<p><i>For what has been already done by Conybeare, Price, Kemble, Thorpe, +Madden, Stevenson, Wright, Way and others, the present writer is most +grateful; but he would wish to see the same spirit and enthusiasm, the +same unwearied zeal displayed in the elucidation of the noble remains of +our Anglo-Saxon ancestors, and of the interesting stores of our early +literature and language, which has been so long a distinguishing feature +of Germany, whose example has of late years lighted up a similar +patriotic flame in France and Belgium.</i></p> + +<p><i>Mickleham, August 20, 1844.</i></p> + + + +<hr style="width: 65%;" /><p><span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_1"

Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg-tm + +Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of +electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of computers +including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers. It exists +because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations from +people in all walks of life. + +Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the +assistance they need, is critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's +goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will +remain freely available for generations to come. In 2001, the Project +Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure +and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations. +To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation +and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4 +and the Foundation web page at http://www.pglaf.org. + + +Section 3. Information about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive +Foundation + +The Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation is a non profit +501(c)(3) educational corporation organized under the laws of the +state of Mississippi and granted tax exempt status by the Internal +Revenue Service. The Foundation's EIN or federal tax identification +number is 64-6221541. Its 501(c)(3) letter is posted at +http://pglaf.org/fundraising.

Newby + Chief Executive and Director + gbnewby@pglaf.org + + +Section 4. Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg +Literary Archive Foundation + +Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide +spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of +increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be +freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest +array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations +($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt +status with the IRS. + +The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating +charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United +States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a +considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up +with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations +where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To +SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any +particular state visit http://pglaf.org + +While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we +have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition +against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who +approach us with offers to donate. + +International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make +any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from +outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff. + +Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation +methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other +ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations. +To donate, please visit: http://pglaf.org/donate + + +Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic +works. + +Professor Michael S. Hart is the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm +concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared +with anyone. For thirty years, he produced and distributed Project +Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support. + + +Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed +editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S. +unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not necessarily +keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition. + + +Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility: + + http://www.gutenberg.org + +This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm, +including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary +Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to +subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks. + + +</pre> + +</body> +</html> |
