Excerpt from An Anglo-Saxon Reader: With Philological Notes, a Brief Grammar, and a Vocabulary
In this edition a brief grammar has been introduced, that it may be fitted for general use as an introduction to the study of anglo-saxon in High Schools and Academies where they might fear the Comparative Grammar. The etymological part of the Vocabulary is reserved for a future edition. It was thought best to make sure of the completeness of the list of words by working it over in class before giving it its final shape.
