IN THE LIBRARY OF CORPUS CHRISTI COLLEGE, CAMBRIDGE,\n\nWITH INTRODUCTION, NOTES, AND GLOSSARY,\n\nBY THE\n\nREV. RICHARD MORRIS, LL.D.,\n\nAUTHOR OF \"HISTORICAL OUTLINES OF ENGLISH ACCIDENCE;\"\nEDITOR OF \"HAMPOLE'S PRICKS OF CONSCIENCE;\" \"EARLY ENGLISH ALLITERATIVE\nPOEMS,\"\nETC. ETC.;\nONE OF THE VICE-PRESIDENTS OF THE PHILOLOGICAL SOCIETY.\n\n[Second and Revised Edition, 1873.]\n\nLONDON:\n\nPUBLISHED FOR THE EARLY ENGLISH TEXT SOCIETY,\n\nBY N. TR\u00dcBNER & CO., 57 & 59, LUDGATE HILL.\n\nMDCCCLXV.\n\n\n\n\nPREFACE.\n\n\nDESCRIPTION OF THE MANUSCRIPT, ETC.\n\nThe Editor of the present valuable and interesting record of our old\nEnglish speech will, no doubt, both astonish and alarm his readers by\ninforming them that he has never seen the manuscript from which the work he\nprofesses to edit has been transcribed.\n\nBut, while the truth must be told, the reader need not entertain the\nslightest doubt or distrust as to the accuracy and faithfulness of the\npresent edition; for, in the first place, the text was copied by Mr F. J.\nFurnivall, an experienced editor and a zealous lover of Old English lore;\nand, secondly, the proof sheets have been most carefully read with the\nmanuscript by the Rev. W. W. Skeat, who has spared no pains to render the\ntext an accurate copy of the original.[1] I have not been satisfied with\nmerely the general accuracy of the text, but all _doubtful_ or _difficult_\npassages have been most carefully referred to, and compared with the\nmanuscript, so that the more questionable a word may appear, either as\nregards its _form_ or _meaning_, the more may the reader rest assured of\nits correctness, so that he may be under no apprehension that he is\nperplexed by any typographical error, but feel confident that he is dealing\nwith the reading of the original copy.\n\nThe editorial portion of the present work includes the punctuation,\nmarginal analysis, conjectural readings, a somewhat large body of\nannotations on the text of the poem, and a Glossarial Index, which, it is\nhoped, will be found to be complete, as well as useful for reference.\n\nThe Corpus manuscript[2] is a small volume (about 8 in. \u00d7 4\u00bd in.), bound in\nvellum, written on parchment in a hand of about 1300 A.D., with several\nfinal long \u017f's, and consisting of eighty-one leaves. Genesis ends on fol.\n49_b_; Exodus has the last two lines at the top of fol. 81_a_.\n\nThe writing is clear and regular; the letters are large, but the words are\noften very close together. Every initial letter has a little dab of red on\nit, and they are mostly capitals, except the _b_, the _f_, the _\u00f0_, and\nsometimes other letters. Very rarely, however, _B_, _F_, and _\u00d0_ are found\nas initial letters.\n\nThe illuminated letters are simply large vermilion letters without\nornament, and are of an earlier form than the writing of the rest of the\nmanuscript. Every line ends with a full stop (or metrical point), except,\nvery rarely, when omitted by accident. Whenever this stop occurs in the\nmiddle of a line it has been marked thus (.) in the text.\n\n\nDESCRIPTION OF THE POEM.\n\nOur author, of whom, unfortunately, we know nothing, introduces his subject\nto his readers by telling them that they ought to love a rhyming story\nwhich teaches the \"layman\" (though he be learned in no books) how to love\nand serve God, and to live peaceably and amicably with his fellow\nChristians. His poem, or \"song,\" as he calls it, is, he says, turned out of\nLatin into English speech; and as birds are joyful to see the dawning, so\nought Christians to rejoice to hear the \"true tale\" of man's fall and\nsubsequent redemption related in the vulgar tongue (\"land's speech\"), and\nin easy language (\"small words\").\n\nSo eschewing a \"high style\" and all profane subjects, he declares that he\nwill undertake to sing no other song, although his present task should\nprove unsuccessful.[3] Our poet next invokes the aid of the Deity for his\nsong in the following terms:\u2014\n\n \"Fader god of alle \u00f0hinge,\n Almigtin louerd, hege\u017ft kinge,\n \u00f0u giue me \u017feli timinge\n To thaunen \u00f0is werdes biginninge,\n \u00f0e, leuerd god, to wur\u00f0inge,\n Que\u00f0er \u017fo hic rede or \u017finge!\"[4]\n\nThen follows the Bible narrative of Genesis and Exodus, here and there\nvaried by the introduction of a few of those sacred legends so common in\nthe medi\u00e6val ages, but in the use of which, however, our author is far less\nbold than many subsequent writers, who, seeking to make their works\nattractive to the \"lewed,\" did not scruple to mix up with the sacred\nhistory the most absurd and childish stories, which must have rendered such\ncompilations more amusing than instructive. It seems to have been the\nobject of the author of the present work to present to his readers, in as\nfew words as possible, the most important facts contained in the Books of\nGenesis and Exodus without any elaboration or comment, and he has,\ntherefore, omitted such facts as were not essentially necessary to the\ncompleteness of his narrative;[5] while, on the other hand, he has included\ncertain portions of the Books of Numbers and Deuteronomy,[6] so as to\npresent to his readers a complete history of the wanderings of the\nIsraelites, and the life of Moses their leader.\n\nIn order to excite the reader's curiosity, we subjoin a few passages, with\na literal translation:\u2014\n\n\nLAMECH'S BIGAMY.\n\n\n Lamech is at \u00f0e sexte kne,\n \u00f0e \u017feuende man after adam,\n \u00f0at of caymes kinde cam.\n \u00f0i\u017f lamech wa\u017f \u00f0e firme man,\n \u00f0e bigamie fir\u017ft bi-gan.\n Bigamie is unkinde \u00f0ing,\n On engleis tale,

unnatural thing,\n In English speech, twi-wiving;\n For aye was right and purity before,\n One man, one wife, till he was born.\n Lamech to him two wives took,\n One Adah, another wife Zillah.\n Adah

wonderful smith;\n Of iron, of gold, silver and brass\n To separate and mix, wise he was;\n Weapon of war and tool of peace,\n Well could he hurt and heal with.\n \u2014(ll. 444-470.)\n\n\nDEATH OF CAIN.\n\n\n Lamech ledde long lif til \u00f0an\n \u00f0at he wur\u00f0 bi\u017fne, and haued a man\n \u00f0at ledde him ofte wude\u017f ner,\n To scheten after \u00f0e wilde der;\n Al-so he

him oft to woods near,\n To shoot after the wild deer (animals);\n As he mistaught, so he shot,\n And Cain in the wood is let;\n His knave (servant) weened it were a deer,\n And Lamech drew his arrow near\n And let it fly off the string,\n Cain unwarned it received,\n Groaned, fell prostrate (stretched) and died with-that.\n Lamech with wrath his knave seized,\n Unbent his bow, and beat and slew,\n Till he fell down in death's swoon.\n Twi-wiving (bigamy) and twi-slaughter (double homicide)\n On his soul is great trouble (anxiety).\n \u2014(ll. 471-486.)\n\n\nHOW THE CHILD MOSES BEHAVED BEFORE PHARAOH.\n\n\n Ghe brogte him bi-foren pharaon,\n And \u00f0i\u017f king wur\u00f0 him in herte mild,\n So \u017fwide faiger was \u00f0i\u017f child;\n And he toc him on \u017funes

\u017fpac \u017fi\u00f0en mi\u017ferlike.\n\n\n\n She (Thermutis) brought him (Moses) before Pharaoh,\n And this king became to him in heart mild,\n So very fair was this child;\n And he took him on son's stead (instead of a son),\n And his crown on his head he did (placed),\n And let it stand a stound (while);\n The child threw it down to the ground.\n Hamon's likeness was thereon;\n This crown is broken, this is misdone.\n The Bishop of Heliopolis\n Saw this circumstance, and up he rose;\n If this child, quoth he, might thrive (grow up),\n He shall Egypt's bale be.\n If there had not helpers 'tween leapt,\n This child had then soon been killed;\n The king with-stood and a wise man,\n He said, The child doth as he can (knows);\n We should now learn whether it did\n This wittingly, or in childishness;\n He offered this child two burning coals\n And he took them (how might he bear them?)\n And in his mouth so deep (far) he them did (placed)\n His tongue's end is burnt therewith;\n Therefore said the Hebrew truly,\n That he spake afterwards indistinctly.\n \u2014(ll. 2634-2658.)\n\n\nHOW MOSES DEFEATED THE ETHIOPIANS.\n\n\n Bi \u00f0at time \u00f0at he was gu\u00f0,\n Wi\u00f0 faigered and \u017ftrengthe ku\u00f0,\n folc ethiopienes on egipte cam,\n And brende, & \u017flug, & wreche nam,\n Al to memphin \u00f0at riche cite,\n And a-non to \u00f0e reade

a-mong,\n And \u017flug \u00f0or manige; oc \u017fumme flen,\n Into \u017faba to borgen ben.\n Moy\u017fes bi-\u017fette al \u00f0at burg,\n Oc it was riche & \u017ftrong ut-\u00f0hurg;\n Ethiopienes kinges dowter tarbis,\n Riche maiden of michel pri\u017f,\n Gaf \u00f0i\u017f riche burg moy\u017fi;\n Luue-bonde hire ghe it dede for-\u00f0i.\n \u00f0or i\u017fe fon he leide in bonde,\n And he wur\u00f0 al-migt-ful in \u00f0at lond;\n He bi-lef \u00f0or(.) tarbis him \u017fcro\u00f0,\n \u00f0og was him \u00f0at \u017furgerun ful lo\u00f0;\n Mai he no leue at hire taken\n but-if he it mai

youth (young man),\n For beauty and strength renowned,\n Ethiopian folk on Egypt came,\n And burnt, and slew, and vengeance took,\n All to Memphis that rich city,\n And anon to the Red Sea;\n Then was Egypt's folk in dread,\n And asked their gods' advice;\n And they said to them in answer,\n That one Hebrew could them well defend.\n\n Moses became leader of that (Egyptian) army,\n There he became then Egypt's protector;\n By a land-way he went right,\n And brought unwarned on them fight;\n They had done Egypt wrong,\n He compassed them and smote among,\n And slew there many; but some fled\n Into Sheba to be saved.\n Moses beset all that borough (city),\n But it was rich and strong out-thorough (throughout);\n Tarbis, the Ethiopian king's daughter,\n Rich maiden of great renown,\n Gave this rich city to Moses;\n As love-bond's hire she did it, therefore.\n There his foes he laid in bond,\n And he became all-powerful in that land;\n He remained there, Tarbis him urged,\n Yet was to him that sojourn full loath;\n May he no leave of her take\n Unless he it may with craft make:\n He was of a strong might and wise,\n He carved in two gems (stones) precious,\n Two likenesses alike carved and depicted,\n This one causes to remember, and the other to forget;\n He fastened them in two rings of gold,\n Gave her the one, he was dear to her;\n [And when depart he would\n Gave her the other, and was distasteful to her]\n She it beareth and this love is forgotten,\n Moses thus hath for himself leave begotten;\n Soon it might with leave be,\n Into Egypt he went again.\n \u2014(ll. 2665-2708.)\n\n\nTHE PLAGUE OF FROGS.\n\n\n And aaron held up his hond\n to \u00f0e water and \u00f0e more lond;\n \u00f0o cam \u00f0or up \u017fwilc fro\u017fkes here\n \u00f0e dede al folc egipte dere;\n Summe woren wilde, and \u017fumme tame,\n And \u00f0o hem deden \u00f0e mo\u017fte \u017fame;\n In hu\u017fe, in drinc, in metes, in bed,\n It cropen and maden hem for-dred;\n Summe

the water and the greater land;\n Then came there up such host of frogs\n That did all Egypt's folk harm;\n Some were wild, and some tame,\n And those caused them the most (greatest) shame;\n In house, in drink, in meats, in bed,\n They crept and made them in great dread;\n Some died and gave (out) stink,\n And (others) uncovered meat and drink;\n Tadpoles and frogs, and toad's venom\n Bound hard Egypt's sorrowful folk.\n \u2014(ll. 2967-2978.)\n\nThe reader must not be disappointed if he fails to find many traces in this\nwork of our pious author's poetic skill; he must consider that the interest\nattaching to so early an _English_ version of Old Testament History, as\nwell as the philological value of the poem, fully compensates him for the\nabsence of great literary merit, which is hardly to be expected in a work\nof this kind. And, moreover, we must recollect that it is to the\npatriotism, as well as piety, of such men as our author, that we owe the\npreservation of our noble language. The number of religious treatises\nwritten in English during the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries proves\nthat the dialect of religion approached more closely to the speech of the\npeople than did the language of history or romance. And it is a curious\nfact that the most valuable monuments of our language are mostly\ntheological, composed for the lewed and unlearned, who knew no other\nlanguage than the one spoken by their forefathers, and who clung most\ntenaciously to their mother tongue, notwithstanding the changes consequent\nupon the Norman invasion, and the oppression of Norman rule, which,\ninasmuch as it fostered and kept up a patriotic spirit, exercised a most\nimportant and beneficial influence upon Early English literary culture and\ncivilization.\n\n\nDATE AND DIALECT OF THE POEM.\n\nThe mere examination of an Early English work with respect to its\nvocabulary and grammatical forms, will not enable us (as Price asserts) to\nsettle satisfactorily the date at which it was written. The place of\ncomposition must also be taken into consideration, and a comparison, if\npossible, must be made with other works in the same dialect, the date of\nwhich is known with some degree of certainty. The date of the text before\nus must not, therefore, be confounded with that of the manuscript, which\nis, perhaps, a few years earlier than A.D. 1300. A careful comparison of\nthe poem with the Bestiary, written in the same dialect, and most probably\nby the same author[9] (and printed by Mr Wright in the Reliqui\u00e6 Antiqu\u00e6, p.\n208, and by myself in an Old English Miscellany), leads me to think that\nthe present poem is not later than A.D. 1250.[10]\n\nThe vocabulary, which contains very few words of Romance origin,[11] is not\nthat of Robert of Gloucester, or of Robert of Brunne, but such as is found\nin La\u021damon's Brut, or Orm's paraphrases, and other works illustrating the\nsecond period of our language, i.e. the twelfth and earlier part of the\nthirteenth centuries.\n\nThe employment of a _dual_ for the pronouns of the first and second persons\nmarks an _early_ date (certainly not much later than the time of Henry\nIII.) even in works composed in the Southern dialect, which, it is well\nknown, retained to a comparatively late period those Anglo-Saxon\ninflections that had long previously been disused in more Northern\ndialects.\n\nThe Corpus manuscript is evidently the work of a scribe, to whom the\nlanguage was more or less archaic, which accounts for such blunders as\n_\u00f0rosing_ for _\u00f0rosem_, _waspene_ for _wastme_, _lage_ for _vn-lage_,\n_insile_ for _vn-sile_, _grauen_ for _\u00f0rauen_, etc.\n\nThe original copy of Genesis most probably terminated with ll. 2521-4:\n\n \"And here ended completely\n The book which is called Genesis,\n Which Moses, through God's help,\n Wrote for precious souls' need.\"\n\nThe concluding lines, in which both the author and scribe are mentioned,\nseem to me to be the work of a subsequent transcriber:\n\n \"God shield his soul from hell-bale,\n Who made it thus in English tale (speech)!\n And he that these letters wrote,\n May God help him blissfully,\n And preserve his soul from sorrow and tears,\n Of hell-pain, cold and hot!\"\n\nThe Ormulum is the earliest[12] printed Early English work which has come\ndown to us that exhibits the uniform employment of the termination _-en_\n(_-n_) as the inflection of the plural number, present tense, indicative\nmood; or, in other words, it is the earliest printed example we have of a\n_Midland_ dialect. I say _a_ Midland dialect, because the work of Orm is,\nafter all, only a specimen of _one_ variety of the Midland speech, most\nprobably of that spoken in the northern part of the eastern counties of\nEngland, including what is commonly called the district of East Anglia.\n\nNext in antiquity to the Ormulum come the Bestiary, already mentioned, and\nthe present poem, both of which uniformly employ the Midland affix _-en_,\nto the exclusion of all others, as the inflection of the present plural\nindicative.\n\nThere are other peculiarities which these works have in common; and a\ncareful comparison of them with the Ormulum induces me to assign them to\nthe East Midland area; but there are certain peculiarities, to be noticed\nhereafter, which induce me to believe that the work of Orm represents a\ndialect spoken in the northern part of this district, while the Story of\nGenesis and Exodus, together with the Bestiary, exhibits the speech of the\nmore southern counties of the East Midland district.[13] Thus, if the\nformer be in the dialect of _Lincoln_, the latter is in that of\n_Suffolk_.[14]\n\nThe chief points in which the present poem and the Bestiary agree with the\nOrmulum are the following:\u2014\n\nI. The absence of compound vowels.\n\nIn the Southern dialects we find the compound vowels _ue_, _eo_, _ie_, _ea_\n(_yea_). In the Ormulum _eo_ occurs, but with the sound of _e_, and _ea_ in\nGenesis and Exodus is written for _e_.\n\nII. The change of an initial _\u00f0_ (th) into _t_ after words ending in _d_,\n_t_, _n_, _s_, that is to say, after a dental or a sibilant.[15]\n\n \"\u00f0anne i\u017f _tis_ fruit wel \u017fwi\u00f0e good.\"\u2014(_Gen. and Ex._, l. 334.)\n\n \"\u00f0e fir\u017ft moned and _te_ fir\u017ft dai,\n He \u017fag er\u00f0e drie & _te_ water awai.\"\u2014(_Ibid._, l. 615-6.)\n\n \"\u00f0in berg and _tin_ werger ic ham.\"\u2014(_Ibid._, l. 926.)\n\n \"at _te_ welle[n].\"\u2014(_Ibid._, l. 2756.)\n\nThis practice is much more frequent in the Bestiary, which is a proof,\nperhaps, that the present poem has suffered somewhat in the course of\ntranscription.\n\n \"neddre is _te_ name.\"\u2014(_O.E. Miscellany_, p. 5.)\n\n \"it is _te_ ned.\"\u2014(_Ibid._, p. 6.)\n\n \"\u00f0is lif bitokne\u00f0 \u00f0e sti\n \u00f0at _te_ neddre gange\u00f0 bi,\n and _tis_ is \u00f0e \u00f0irl of \u00f0e ston,\n \u00f0at _tu_ salt \u00f0urg gon.\"\u2014(_Ibid._, p. 7.)\n\n \"at _tin_ herte.\"\u2014(_Ibid._, p. 7.)\n\nIII. Simplicity of grammatical structure and construction of sentences.[16]\n\n1. The neglect of _gender_ and _number_ in nouns.\n\n2. The genitive singular of substantives end in _-es_ in all genders.[17]\n\n3. The absence of the gen. pl. of substantives in _-ene_.\n\n4. The employment of an uninflected article.[18]\n\n5. The use of _\u00f0at_ (that) as a demonstrative adjective, and not as the\nneuter of the article. The form _\u00f0as_ (those), common enough in the\nfourteenth century, does not occur in this poem or in the Ormulum.\n\n6. No inflection of the adjective in the accusative singular. The phrase\n'_godun_ dai,' good day, in l. 1430, p. 41, contains a solitary instance of\nthe accusative of the adjective, but it is, no doubt, a mere remnant of the\nolder speech, just like our 'for _the n_once' (= for _then_ once), and is\nno proof that the writer or his readers employed it as a common inflection.\nThe form _godun_ is a corruption of _godne_, as it is more properly written\nin works in the Southern dialects as late as the middle of the fourteenth\ncentury.\n\n7. Adjectives and adverbs with the termination _-like_.\n\nThe Southern form is, for adjectives, _-lich_ (sing.), _-liche_ (pl.); for\nadverbs _-liche_. Thus the adoption of this affix really (though at first\nit appears a matter of no importance) marks a _stage_ in the language when\nthe distinction between the sing. and pl. form of adjectives was not very\nstrictly observed, and was, moreover, a step towards our modern _-ly_,\nwhich is adjectival as well as adverbial.\n\nEven in this poem adjectives occur in _-li_, as _reuli_ = piteous, which is\nthe earliest example I have met with. Orm employs double forms in _-like_\nand _-li\u021d\u021d_ (= _ly_?). _-ly_ has arisen not out of _-lich_ or _-liche_\n(which would have become _lidge_ or _litch_), but out of some such softened\nform as _li\u021d_.\n\n8. The tendency to drop the initial _y_, _i_ (A.S. _ge_) of the passive\nparticiples of strong verbs.\n\nThe Ormulum has two or three examples of this prefixal element, and in our\npoem it occurs but seldom.\n\nIV. A tendency to drop the _t_ of the second person of verbs, as _as_,\nhast; _beas_, be\u00ebst; _findes_, findest.\n\nExamples of this practice are very common in the Bestiary and Genesis and\nExodus, but it occurs only four times in the Ormulum.[19] It was very\ncommon for the West-Midland to drop the _-e_ of 2nd person in strong verbs.\nSee Preface to O.E. Homilies, 1st Series.\n\nV. The use of _arn_, _aren_, for _ben_ of the Midland dialect, or _be\u00f0_ of\nthe Southern dialect.[20]\n\nVI. The employment of the adverbs _thethen_, _hethen_, _quethen_ (of\nScandinavian origin),[21] instead of the Southern _thenne_ (_thennen_),\nthence; _henne_ (_hennen_), hence; _whanne_ (_whanene_), whence.\n\nVII. The use of _oc_, _ok_ (also, and), a form which does not occur in any\nspecimen of a Southern, West-Midland, or Northern dialect that has come\nunder my notice. The use of _on_, _o_, for the Southern _an_ or _a_, as\n_onlike_, _olike_, alike, _on-rum_, apart, _on-sunder_, asunder, is also\nworth noticing.\n\nVIII. The coalition of the pronoun _it_ with pronouns and verbs, as _get_\n(Bestiary) = she it (_\u021dh\u00f6t_ in Ormulum; cf. _\u00fe\u00fct_ = _thu itt_, thou it);\n_tellet_ = tell it; _wuldet_ = would it; _ist_ = is it, is there; _wast_,\nwas it, was there, etc. _\u00feit_ = _\u00fee_ + _hit_ = who it, occurs in O.E.\nHomilies, 2nd Series.\n\nThe Ormulum, the Bestiary, and Genesis and Exodus have some few other\npoints of agreement which will be found noticed in the Grammatical Details\nand Glossary. There are, however, grammatical forms in the latter works\nwhich do not present themselves in the former, and which, in my opinion,\nseem to indicate a more Southern origin. (See Preface to O.E. Homilies, 2nd\nSeries.)\n\nI. Plurals in _n_.\n\nI do not recollect any examples of plurals in _n_ in the Ormulum, except\n_ehne_, eyes; in this poem we have _colen_, coals; _deden_, deeds; _fon_,\nfoes; _si\u00f0en_, sides; _son_, shoes; _steden_, places; _sunen_, sons;\n_tren_, trees; _teten_, teats; _wunen_, laws, abilities, etc. (see p.\nxxii.)\n\nII. The pronoun _is_ (_es_) = them.[22] In the fourteenth century we only\nfind this form _is_ (_hise_) in pure _Southern_ writers.[23]\n\n \"Diep he _i\u017f_ dalf under an ooc.\"[24]\u2014(_Gen. and Ex._, l. 1873, p. 54.)\n\n \"For \u017falamon findin _i\u017f_ \u017fal.\"[25]\u2014(_Ibid._, l. 1877, p. 54.)\n\n \"He toc _i\u017f_.\"[26]\u2014(_Ibid._, l. 2654, p. 76.)\n\n\n \"Alle hise fet steppes\n After him he fille\u00f0,\n Drage\u00f0 dust wi\u00f0 his stert\n (_O.E. Miscell._, p. 1.)\n\n \u00f0er he steppe\u00f0,\n O\u00f0er dust o\u00f0er deu,\n \u00f0at he ne cunne _is_ finden.\"[27]\n\n\n\nOur author, however, employs this curious pronoun in a way quite peculiar\nto himself, for he constantly joins it to a _pronoun_ or a _verb_,[28] and\nthe compound was at first rather perplexing. _Hes_ = _he_ + _is_, he, them;\n_wes_ = _we_ + _is_, we, them;[29] _caldes_, called them; _dedis_, did\n(placed) them; _settes_, set them; _wroutis_, wrought them, etc.\n\n \"Alle _hes_ hadde wi\u00f0 migte bi-geten.\"[30]\u2014(_Gen. and Ex._, l. 911, p.\n 26.)\n\n \"Vndelt _he\u017f_ leide quor-so _he\u017f_ tok.\"[31]\u2014(_Ibid._, l. 943, p. 27.)\n\n \"\u00d0e culuer haue\u00f0 costes gode,\n alle _wes_ ogen to hauen in mode.\"[32]\u2014(_O.E. Miscell._, p. 25.)\n\n \"Bala two childre bar bi him,\n Rachel _caldes_ dan(.) neptalim;\n And zelfa two sunes him ber,\n Lia _calde is_(.) Gad(.) and asser.\"[33]\u2014(_Gen. and Ex._, l. 1700, p.\n 49.)\n\n \"\u00f0e tabernacle he _dedis_ in.\"[34]\u2014(_Ibid._, l. 3830, p. 109.)\n\n \"He _settes_ in \u00f0e firmament.\"[35]\u2014(_Ibid._, l. 135, p. 5.)\n\nIn the Kentish Ayenbite of 1340 _he_ never coalesces with _hise_ (them),\n_e.g._:\u2014\n\n \"He (the devil) is lye\u021dere and vader of leazinges, ase he \u00feet made \u00fee\n verste leazinge, and yet _he hise_ make\u00fe and tek\u00fe eche daye.\"\u2014(Ayenbite\n of Inwyt, p. 47.)\n\n (He is a liar and the father of leasings, as he that made the first\n leasing, and yet _he them_, i.e. lies, maketh and teacheth each day.)\n\nIn Old Kentish Sermons (Old Eng. Miscell p. 28) _has_ = _ha_ + _es_ = he\nthem.\n\nIII. The pronoun _he_, they (Southern _hii_, _heo_; Northumbrian _thay_).\nOrm uses _\u00fee\u021d\u021d_, as well as _\u00fee\u021d\u021der_ (their), _\u00fee\u021d\u021dm_ (them).[36]\n\nIV. _hine_, _hin_, _in_ = him. This form occurs as late as 1340, and still\nexists under the form _en_, _un_, in the modern dialects of the South of\nEngland, but is not employed by Orm; nor do we find any traces of _whan_\n(whom), another very common example of the _-n_ accusative inflection,\neither in the Ormulum or the present work.\n\nV. The substitution of _n_ for a vowel-ending in nouns. Dr Guest has\nnoticed this peculiarity, but he confines this substitution to the\n_nominative_ case of nouns of the _n_ declension,[37] and to the definite\nform of the adjective, which has, no doubt, given rise to the O.E.\n_himseluen_, etc., _bothen_ (both), as well as, perhaps, to _ouren_ (ours),\n_heren_ (theirs), etc.\n\nIn the present poem, however, the _n_ seems added to the vowel-ending of\nall cases except the possessive, in order to rhyme with a verb in the\ninfinitive, a passive participle, or an adverb terminating in _-en_, and is\nnot always limited to nouns of the _-n_ declension, but represents in A.S.\nan _a_ or _e_: 'on _boken_,'[38] on book, l. 4; 'on _so\u00f0e-sagen_,' on\nsooth-saw, l. 14; _meten_, (acc.) meat, l. 2255, (nom.) 2079; _sunen_,\n(nom.) son, l. 1656; 'of _luuen_,' of love, 635; 'after \u00f0e _wunen_' (after\nthe custom), l. 688; _steden_, (nom.) place, 1114; 'for _on-sagen_,' for\nreproach, 2045; _wliten_, (nom.) face, 3614, (acc.) 2289; 'wi\u00f0 _answeren_,'\nin answer, 2673; _bileuen_, (acc.) remainder, 3154; _uuerslagen_, (acc.)\nlintel, 3155.\n\nDr Guest considers this curious nunnation to be a Northern peculiarity, but\nas we do not meet with it (as far as I know) in any Northumbrian work, his\nstatement is rather doubtful. On the other hand, it is well known that the\nplurals _bretheren_ (_bro\u00f0eren_[39] in Shoreham), _calveren_[40] (calves),\n_children_,[41] _doren_ (doors),[42] _eyren_ (eggs),[43] _honden_\n(hands),[44] _kine_,[45] _lambren_ (lambs),[46] _soulen_ (souls)\u2014very\ncommon forms in the _Southern_ dialects in the thirteenth and fourteenth\ncenturies\u2014are examples of the substitution of _n_ for, or in addition to,\nthe vowel-ending, and were unknown in the Northern dialect.\n\nThe Southern dialect could drop or retain, at pleasure, the _n_ final in\nthe past participles, the preterite plurals, and infinitive mood of verbs.\n\nVI. A very small Norse element in the vocabulary.\n\nThe only words of undoubtedly Norse element that occur in the present poem,\nand were unknown to Southern English, are\u2014_fro_ (from), _ille_ (bad),\n_for-swe\u00f0en_ (to burn), _flitten_ (to remove), _la\u00f0e_ (barn), _lowe_\n(flame), _mirk_ (dark), _ransaken_ (to search), _swa\u00f0e_ (flame), _til_\n(to), _uglike_ (horrible), _werre_ (worse).[47]\n\nThe Ormulum, being more Northern, contains a _larger_ number of words that\nmust be referred to one of the Scandinavian idioms:[48]\u2014_afell_ (strength),\n_afledd_ (begotten), _be\u021d\u021dsc_ (bitter), *_blunnt_ (blunt, dull), _bracc_\n(noise), *_bra\u00fe_ (angry), *_bra\u00fe\u00fee_ (anger), *_brodd_ (shoot), _brodden_\n(to sprout), _bro\u00fe\u00fefall_ (fit), *_bun_ (ready, _bound_), *_clake_\n(accusation), *_croc_ (device), *_derf_ (bold), *_dill_ (sluggish),\n*_eggenn_ (to urge, egg on), *_egginng_ (urging), *_ettle_, *_flittenn_ (to\nremove, flit), *_flitting_ (change, removal), *_forrgart_ (opposed,\ncondemned), *_forrgloppned_ (disturbed with fear, astonishment), *_gate_\n(way), _gowesst_ (watchest), *_ha\u021dherr_ (dexterous), _ha\u021dherle\u021d\u021dc_ (skill),\n*_ha\u021dherrlike_ (fitly), _hof_ (moderation), _hofel\u00e6s_ (immoderately),\n*_ille_ (bad), *_immess_ (variously), *_kinndlenn_ (to kindle), *_lasst_\n(crime, fault), _le\u021dhe_ (hire, pay), *_le\u021d\u021dtenn_ (O.E. _layte_, inquire,\nseek), _o-loft_ (aloft), *_lo\u021dhe_ (fire), *_mune_ (must, will), _na\u00fee_\n(grace), _nowwt_ (cattle, O.N. _naut_; the Southern form is _neet_, _nete_,\nA.S. _ne\u00e1t_), *_ploh_ (plough), *_radd_ (afraid), *_ros_ (praise), *_rosen_\n(to boast), *_rosinng_ (boast), _rowwst_ (voice), *_scaldess_ (poets, O.E.\n_scald_, a great talker, boaster, E. _scold_), *_sit_ (pain), *_sket_\n(quickly), *_skirpe\u00fe\u00fe_ (rejecteth), *_slo\u00fe_ (track, path), _smikerr_\n(beautiful, Eng. _smug_), _soww\u00feess_ (sheep), _stoffnedd_ (generated, O.E.\n_stoven_, trunk, stem), *_summ_ (as), *_till_ (to), *_t\u00f3r_ (hard,\ndifficult), *_trigg_ (true), _uppbrixle_ (object of reproach, O.E.\n_brixle_, reproach), _usell_ (wretched), *_wand_ (rod), *_wandra\u00fe_, O.E.\n_wandreth_ (trouble), *_werre_ (worse).\n\nAs most, if not all, of the words in the foregoing list are not found in\nworks written in the Southern dialect,\u2014so far as we at present know them\u2014we\nmay reasonably suppose that they indicate fairly the Danish element in the\nEnglish literature of the 12th and 13th centuries. In the Northumbrian, and\nthe West, and East-Midland productions of a century later this element\nprevails to a much larger extent, and Herbert Coleridge's list of such\nwords may be largely increased (Phil. Soc. Trans., 1859, p. 26-30).\n\n\nGRAMMATICAL DETAILS.\n\n\nI. NOUNS.\n\n1. _Number._\u2014The plural is generally formed by adding _-es_ to the\nsingular. Some few nouns make the plural in _-en_, as _feren_[49]\n(companions), _fon_ (foes), _goren_ (spears), _loten_ (features), _sunen_\n(sons), _teten_ (teats), _tren_ (trees), _weden_ (garments), _wunen_\n(laws). The plurals of _brother_ and _child_ are _brethere_ and _childere_.\n_Der_ (deer), _erf_, _orf_ (cattle), _got_ (goat), _neat_ (oxen), _sep_\n(sheep), _scrud_ (garbs), _wrim_ (reptiles), of the neuter gender, are\nuninflected in the plural. _Winter_, _ger_ (year), and _nigt_ (night), are\nplural as in Anglo-Saxon.\n\n2. _Gender._\u2014As a general rule the names of inanimate things are of the\nneuter gender. The names of towns, however, are considered as masculine.\n\n3. _Case._\u2014The genitive singular and plural of masculine and feminine nouns\nend in _-es_. Occasionally proper nouns form the genitive in _-is_. The\nmeans or instrument occasionally stands in the genitive without the\npreposition: '_deades_ driuen,' influenced by death; '_swerdes_ slagen,'\nslain of the sword; '_teres_ wet,' wet with tears. Cf. '_floures bred_,'\nbread made with flour; '_bredes_ mel,' meal consisting of bread; '_wines_\ndrinc,' drink consisting of wine.\n\nCorresponding to the modern word _kinsmen_ we have such forms as\n'_daiges-ligt_' (daylight), '_hines-folk_' (servants), '_wifeskin_'\n(women). The genitive is used adverbially, as _newes_, anew; _liues_,\nalive.\n\nWe have a few traces of the genitive in _-e_ in the following examples:\n'_helle_ nigt,' l. 89 (hell's night); '_helle_ bale,' l. 2525 (hell's\nbale); '_sterre_ name,' l. 134 (star's name); '_safte_ same,' l. 349 (shame\nof form); '_werlde_ nigt,' l. 1318 (world's night).[50]\n\nThe genitive of _fader_ and _moder_ is, as is very seldom the case in Early\nEnglish writers, _fadres_ and _modres_.\n\nAn _n_ is often added to the final _-e_ (representing an A.Sax.\nvowel-ending) in the nom., dat., and acc. of nouns. For examples, see p.\nxxi.\n\n\nII. ADJECTIVES.\n\n1. Adjectives have a definite and an indefinite form; the former is used\nwhen the adjective is preceded by the definite article, a demonstrative\nadjective, or possessive pronoun.\n\n Indef. _wis_ (wise), _god_ (good).\n Def. _wise_, _gode_.\n\n2. _Number._\u2014The plural is formed by the addition of _e_ to the singular.\n\n SINGULAR. PLURAL.\n _fet_ (fat), _fette_.\n _gret_ (great) _grete_.\n _other_, _othere_.\n _tother_, _tothere_.\n\nBut the _-e_ (pl.) is seldom added to the past participle of irregular\nverbs. _This_ forms the plurals _thes_ (oblique cases _these_), _this_\n(_thise_). _Tho_ is the plural of _that_.\n\n_Cases._\u2014_One_ makes the genitive _ones_; as, '_ones_ bles,' of one colour.\nThe gen. pl. _-re_ occurs in _ald-re_ (= _alre_), of all; as, 'hure _aldre_\nbale,' the bale of us all; 'here _aldre_ heuedes,' the heads of them all.\n\n_Degrees of comparison._\u2014The comparative ends in _-ere_ (_-er_), the\nsuperlative in _-este_ (_est_).[51] Very few irregular forms occur in the\npresent poem.\n\n POSITIVE. COMPARATIVE. SUPERLATIVE.\n ille, werre. \u2014\u2014\n lite, lesse, leist.\n long, { leng. } \u2014\u2014\n { lengere. }\n mikel, { mo, } moste.\n { mor, }\n neg, \u2014\u2014 neste.\n old, eldere, eldeste.\n\n_Numerals._\u2014The Northumbrian forms in _-nde_ have superseded the Southern\nones in _-the_; as, _seuende_ (seventh), _egtende_ (eighth), _tende_\n(tenth).[52]\n\n\nIII. PRONOUNS.\n\n1. The first personal pronoun _Ic_ is never found softened into _Ich_ as in\nLa\u021damon's Brut, the Ancren Riwle, and other Southern works. _I_ is found\nonly once or twice throughout the poem.\n\n2. The first and second personal pronouns have a _dual_ as well as a plural\nnumber; as, _wit_, we two; _unc_, us two; _gunc_, you two; _gunker_, of you\ntwo.\n\n3. _Hine_ (_hin_, _in_) (acc.) occasionally occurs, but more frequently\n_him_ (dat.) does duty for it.\n\n4. _Ge_, _ghe_,[53] she, represents the A.Sax. _h\u00e9o_ (O.E. _heo_, _ho_, and\n_hi_). The curious form _sge_ (= _sye_), as well as _sche_, occurs for she,\nthe earliest instance of which is _sc\u00e6_ in the A.Sax. Chronicle.\n\n5. The neuter pronoun is written _it_ and not _hit_, and is frequently used\nas a plural. It coalesces with the pronoun _ge_, _ghe_[54] (she), and with\nthe preterite of verbs terminating in _-de_ or _-te_,[55] and with some few\nirregular verbs; as, _sagt_ (saw there), p. 37, l. 1301. The curious form\n_negt_ (in l. 3964, p. 112) = _neg_ + _it_ = nigh it.\n\n6. The A.Sax. _hi_ (they) is represented by _he_ = _hie_.[56] _He_ is\ncommon enough in the Romance of Havelok the Dane.[57]\n\nThe pronouns, as has already been shown, coalesce with the plural (acc.)\n_is_ (them), and give us the compounds _hes_, he + them; _wes_, we +\nthem;[58] mes = _me_ + _hes_ = one + them.[59]\n\nNot satisfied with joining _he_ (they) to the pronoun _is_, the author of\nthis poem occasionally employs the more perplexing combination _hem_ = _he_\n+ _hem_, he, them.\n\n bred kalue\u017f flei\u017f, and flures bred,\n _Roasted calves' flesh, and flour-bread,_\n And buttere, _hem_ \u00f0o sondes bed,\n _And butter, he them the messengers offered._\u2014(l. 1014.)\n In \u017fichem feld ne fonde _hem_ nogt,\n _In Shechem field found he them not._\u2014(l. 1933.)\n \u00d0o \u017fette \u017fundri _hem_ to waken,\n _Then set sundry he them to watch._\u2014(l. 2551.)\n \u00f0o \u017feide \u00f0u\u017f quanne _hem_ cam dun,\n _Then said thus when he to them came down._\u2014(l. 4022.)\n\nIn l. 2673 _hem_ seems to stand for _he_ + _hem_, they + them.\n\n And _hem_ \u017feiden wi\u00f0 an\u017fweren,[60]\n _And they to them said in answer._\n\nThe Southern _me_, one (Fr. _on_), is absent from this poem as well as from\nthe Ormulum; its place is supplied by _man_ and _men_[61] used with a verb\nin the singular number. _\u00f0e_ is frequently used as a relative pronoun as\nwell as _\u00f0at_, but uninflected; _quo_ (who), _quat_ (what), are\ninterrogative; _whether_ signifies which of two.\n\n\nTABLE OF PRONOUNS.\n\n SINGULAR.\n\n Nom.

VERBS.\n\n_Infinitive Mood._\u2014The infinitive terminates in _-en_, which is seldom\ndropped.\n\nThere are no infinitives in _-y_ or _-ie_, as in Southern English writers,\nnor do we find them in the Ormulum, or in Robert of Brunne's \"Handlyng\nSynne,\" and they were, most probably, wholly unknown to the East Midland\ndistrict.\n\nThe _t_ in the 2nd pers. sing. pres. is occasionally dropped, as _beas_ (=\n_best_), art, _betes_, beatest, _findes_, findest, etc.; but not in the\npreterite of regular verbs.\n\nThere are no instances of the 3rd pers. sing. present in _-es_ in this\npoem.\n\nThe final _e_ of the first and third persons (sing.) of the preterite tense\nis often dropped before a vowel or an _h_,[63] and, in a few cases, through\nthe carelessness of the scribe,[64] it is unwritten before a consonant,\nwhere we should expect to, and do, find it in the majority of instances.\n\nSome few strong verbs have become weak, as _grapte_ (grasped, felt),\n_gette_ (poured), _smette_ (smote).\n\n_Imperative Mood._\u2014Verbs forming the past tense in _de_ or _te_ take no\ninflexion in the 2nd pers. sing. imperative.\n\n_Participles._\u20141. The active or imperfect participle ends in _-ende_ or\n_-ande_, the former being the Midland and the latter the Northumbrian form.\nThe Southern affix is _-inde_, from which we have the modern _-ing_ (O.E.\n_-inge_).\n\nOur author rhymes _specande_ with _lockende_, and in the Bestiary we find\nthat the participle in _-ande_ rhymes with an infinitive in _-en_,[65] and\nthis accounts for such forms as _stinken_ = _stinkende_, _brennen_ =\n_brennende_, in the present poem.\n\n2. The passive or perfect participle of regular or weak verbs terminates in\n_-ed_; of irregular or strong verbs in _-en_. In _bigote_ (begotten),\n_funde_ (found), _geue_ (given), the absence of the _n_ is probably an\nerror of the scribe.\n\n3. The prefix _i-_ or _y-_ (A.S. _ge-_) is not of frequent occurrence\neither in this poem or in the Bestiary; in the former we have _i-wreken_\n(avenged), _i-wrogt_ (wrought), _ybiried_ (buried), _y-oten_ (called); and\nin the latter we find _i-digt_ (arranged).\n\nThere are two conjugations of verbs, regular (weak) and irregular (strong).\nThe regular verbs form their past tense in _-ede_, _-de_, or _-te_; the\npast participle ends in _-ed_, _-d_, or _-t_. Irregular verbs form their\npast tense by a change of vowel, and the past participle terminates in\n_-en_.\n\n\nCONJUGATION OF REGULAR VERBS.\n\n\nI. CLASS.

PREPOSITIONS.\n\n_Fro_ (Northumbrian _fra_) takes the place of the Southern _fram_ (from),\nand _til_ (unknown to Southern writers) occurs frequently for _to_.\n\n\n\n\nTHE METRE OF THE POEM.\n\n\nThe essence of the system of versification which the poet has adopted is,\nbriefly, that every line shall have _four accented_ syllables in it; the\n_unaccented_ syllables being left in some measure, as it were, to take care\nof themselves.\n\nThe words which Coleridge prefixed to his poem of \"Christabel\" are by no\nmeans inapplicable here. He says, \"I have only to add, that the metre of\nthe 'Christabel' is not, properly speaking, irregular, though it may seem\nto be so from its being founded on a new (?) principle: namely, that of\ncounting in each line the accents, not the syllables. Though the latter may\nvary from seven to twelve, yet in each line the accents will be found to be\nonly four.\"\n\nThe normal form of the line of the present poem is that simple one of eight\nsyllables, consisting of four (so-called) iambics, which is so common in\nEnglish poetry. But it should be remembered that this line is at all times\nconvertible with one of _seven_ syllables, generally described as\nconsisting of three trochees and a long syllable. This is easily\nexemplified by taking the first two lines of the Conclusion to the Second\nPart of Coleridge's \"Christabel.\"\n\n \\/ \u2014\u2014 \\/ \u2014\u2014 \\/ \u2014\u2014 \\/ \u2014\u2014\n A lit | tle child | a lim | ber elf ||\n \u2014\u2014 \\/ \u2014\u2014 \\/ \u2014\u2014 \\/ \u2014\u2014\n Singing | dancing | to it | self ||\n\nThis is adopting the common form of scansion given in English prosodies,\nwhich is far from being a very correct method; since to make _trochaic_ and\n_iambic_ metres convertible is to introduce all sorts of confusion.\n\nThe fact is, that the _seven-syllable_ line, though _trochaic_ to the\n_ear_, is really an _iambic_ line, of which the _first_ syllable is\n_deficient_, i.e., supplied by a _pause_; and the truer scansion is,\n\n A lit | tle child | a lim | ber elf ||\n \u2014 Sing | ing danc | ing to | itself ||\n\nAt any rate, to adopt this latter method (of beginning to mark off the feet\nfrom the _end_, instead of from the _beginning_ of the line) will be found\nto be far more convenient in practice; since the accented syllables,\ninstead of drifting about, will thus always be placed at the end of a foot.\nWe should thus, for instance, introduce the same marking off of syllables\nin the line,\n\n \u00c1nd | \u00f0e s\u00e9x | te d\u00e1 | is ligt || l. 167,\n\nas we have in the line,\n\n \u00f0o c\u00e1m | \u00f0e f\u00edf | te d\u00e1 | is ligt || l. 158.\n\nExamples of couplets containing a line of each kind are not uncommon; thus,\nll. 29, 30:\u2014\n\n F\u00e1 | der g\u00f3d | of \u00e1l | le \u00f0h\u00ednge ||\n Alm\u00edg | tin l\u00f3u | erd h\u00e9g | est k\u00ednge ||\n\nAlso lines 289, 290.\n\n And g\u00e9t | ne k\u00fa | \u00f0e h\u00e9 | nogt bl\u00ednne ||\n F\u00f3r | to d\u00f3n | an \u00f3\u00f0 | er \u017f\u00ednne ||\n\nSee also ll. 309, 310; 439, 440, etc.\n\nThe introduction of these seven-syllable lines, far from being a defect, is\na natural and agreeable variation, adopted by all our best poets.\n\nThe next chief variation to be noted is that two very rapid syllables are\noften (as in other English metres) substituted for an unaccented one, as in\nl. 88:\u2014\n\n \u00d3r | \u00f0e n\u00edgt | and \u00e1f | ter \u00f0e d\u00e1y ||\n ~~~~~~\n\nAgain, in l. 93:\u2014\n\n On an \u00f3\u00f0 | er da\u00ed | \u00f0is m\u00edd | del \u00e9rd ||\n ~~~~~\n\nand in l. 474:\u2014\n\n To sch\u00e9 | ten \u00e1f | ter \u00f0e w\u00edl | de d\u00e9r ||\n ~~~~~~\n\nSee also ll. 321, 503, 505, 656, etc.; and compare the line from\n\"Christabel:\"\n\n \"That sh\u00e1 | dowy in | the moon | light shone ||\"\n ~~~~\n\nThe syllables thus most frequently _slurred over_\u2014the term _elided_ is but\nweak and improper, explaining nothing\u2014are the final syllables _-en_, _-er_,\n_-et_, etc., as in ll. 96 and 116:\u2014\n\n \u00c1l | ab\u00fa | ten \u00f0is w\u00e1lk | ne s\u00e9nt ||\n ~~~~~~~\n\n Was w\u00e1 | ter and \u00e9r\u00f0e | o \u017f\u00fan | der \u017f\u00e1d ||\n ~~~~~~~\n\nSome lines\u2014and these sound rather harshly\u2014require a little _forcing_ to\nmake them conform to the strict type; as, _e.g._, l. 66, which, to make it\nagree with the rest, must be written,\n\n \u00cdn | to \u00f0is \u00f0h\u00ed\u017f | terne\u017f\u017fe h\u00e9r | bi-n\u00e9\u00f0en ||\n ~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~\n\nA poet's business is, in fact, to take care that the syllables which _are_\nto be rapidly pronounced are such as easily _can_ be so; and that the\nsyllables which are to be heavily accented are naturally those that _ought_\nto be. If he gives attention to this it does not much matter whether each\nfoot has _two_ or _three_ syllables in it.\n\nA man is master of his art when he can write\u2014\n\n Come in | to the gar | den, Maud ||\n For the black | bat, night, | has flown ||\n And the wood | bine spi | ces are waf | ted abroad ||\n And the musk | of the rose | is blown ||\n\nWith respect to the final _-en_, it should be further noted\u2014\n\n(1) That it is sometimes fully pronounced, as in ll. 87 and 91\u2014\n\n fr\u00f3 | \u00f0at t\u00edme | we t\u00e9l | len \u00e1y ||\n \u00f0o g\u00e1n | hem d\u00e1 | gen w\u00e9l | iw\u00ed\u017f\u017fe ||\n\n(2) That it is sometimes rapidly slurred over, as in l. 96, already cited;\nand\n\n(3) That (especially after an _r_) it is often so pronounced as to be\nincorporated with the syllable preceding it, so that the whole word,\nsupposing it a dissyllable in appearance, becomes monosyllabic in\npronunciation; as in l. 514\u2014\n\n Mat\u00fa | \u017fal\u00e9 | was b\u00f3ren | i\u017f \u017f\u00fane ||\n\nand, again, in l. 655\u2014\n\n W\u00f3ren | \u017ftalw\u00far | \u00f0i b\u00f3ren | bi t\u00e1le ||\n\nThus, we may find the same word written and pronounced as a dissyllable\u2014\n\n W\u00f3 | ren \u00f0\u00e1ne | don \u017f\u00f3ne | a-n\u00f3n || l. 3591;\n\nand, in another place, written and pronounced as a monosyllable\u2014\n\n In geu | el\u00e9ng\u00f0h | e w\u00f3rn | it m\u00e1d || l. 147.\n\nThus, the _n_ must have been _very slightly_ touched, as is shewn also by\nthe riming of _e_ and _en_. Examples, ll. 11, 12; 363, 364, etc.\n\nAs to the final _-e_, it may be observed that it is most frequently\npronounced just when it is most essential, viz., when it marks a\ngrammatical inflexion, or an adverbial form, as, _e.g._:\u2014\n\n Til ih\u00e9 | sus b\u00e9\u00f0 | on R\u00f3 | d\u00e8 d\u00f3n || l. 386;\n\nand,\n\n W\u00e9l | he \u017fe\u00ed | den and \u017fw\u00ed | \u00f0\u00e8 w\u00e9l || l. 1645.\n\nIn the second place, it is very liable to be slurred over before a vowel\nfollowing, as in l. 148\u2014\n\n In R\u00e9 | ke-f\u00edl | le on \u017f\u00fan | der \u017fh\u00e1d ||\n ~~~~~\n\nand, thirdly, it is frequently added to words without cause, and is\ntherefore mute, as in l. 60\u2014\n\n \u00f0at \u00e9u | ere \u017fpr\u00f3ng | in w\u00e9rld | w\u00edd ||\n\nIt seems to be sometimes mute after _-ed_, when _-ede_ forms part of a\nverb. See ll. 1396, 1433, etc.\n\nAttention to the metre may detect errors in the text. Thus, in l. 75, the\nword _dais_ is missing:\u2014\n\n for\u00f0 gl\u00f3d | \u00f0at f\u00edr | me [d\u00e1 | is] l\u00edgt ||\n\nSee l. 113, which proves the point.\n\nIn l. 1846 the definite form of the adjective is required, and _strong_\nshould be _stronge_\u2014\n\n \u00f0e str\u00f3ng | e g\u00f3d | of \u00fds | ra\u00e9l ||\n\nIt has been noted that the first foot of a line sometimes consists of _one_\nsyllable only, and that one _accented_. By a bolder license, this is\nsometimes the case not only with the _first_ foot, but with _other_ feet,\ne.g. with the _third_ foot. Line 2572:\u2014\n\n Q_u_an \u00e9 | bru ch\u00edld | \u017f\u00fald | be b\u00f3ren ||\n\nAgain, with the _last_ foot, as in l. 3580, unless we read _duste_:\u2014\n\n And \u017ft\u00edred | it \u00e1l | to d\u00fa\u017ft | \u017fir ||\n\nVery many other curious variations occur, which the reader will probably\nobserve for himself with some interest. Thus, in l. 60, just above cited,\nthe question arises whether or not the _r_ in _werld_ was pronounced with\nso strong a _burr_ as to render the word _dissyllabic_, as is often the\ncase in Scotch poetry with words containing _rl_, _rn_, etc.\n\n\n\n\nCONTRACTIONS USED IN THE GLOSSARY.\n\n\n A.S.

Hom., 2nd Series.\n\n [14] It must be recollected that the Ormulum is much earlier than the\n Story of Genesis and Exodus.\n\n [15] See Ormulum, Introduction, p. lxxviii., note 105; lxxxi., note 112.\n\n [16] While agreeing with the editor of the Ormulum, that the simplicity of\n grammatical forms may fairly be considered as indicating a less\n artificial, and therefore advanced, stage of the language, I cannot\n adopt his theory, that \"the strict rules of grammar\" were therefore\n abandoned, and thereby was anticipated, to a certain extent, a later\n phraseology and structure; or that Orm, or any other O.E. writer,\n ever sacrificed \"the more regular for a simpler, though more corrupt,\n structure and style.\" It must always be borne in mind that our\n earlier writers always speak of their language as English; but it was\n the English of the district in which they lived. In some districts,\n as in the Northumbrian, for instance, the language underwent certain\n changes at a very early period, which more Southern dialects did not\n adopt for more than a century afterwards: thus, in works of the 14th\n century, we find the Midland more archaic than the Northumbrian, and\n the Southern more archaic than either. Authors seeking to become\n popular would write in the dialect best understood by their readers,\n without considering whether it was simple or complex. Thus the\n Ayenbite of Inwyt (A.D. 1340), written for the men of Kent, contains\n far more of the older inflectional forms than the Ormulum of the\n twelfth century.\n\n [17] Southern writers before 1340 formed the g.s. of fem. nouns in _-e_\n and not in _-es_.\n\n [18] In the Southern dialect the article had separate forms for the\n nominative fem. (_theo_, _tho_), and neuter (_thet_, _that_); the\n fem. gen. sing. (_thar_, _ther_), and the masc. acc. (_than_,\n _then_).\n\n [19] See Ormulum, Introduction, p. lxxviii., note 105.\n\n [20] _Sinden_, are, occurs in the Ormulum and the Bestiary, but is not\n employed in the present poem.\n\n [21] These forms occur in O.E. Hom., 2nd Series.\n\n [22] In O.E. Hom., 2nd Series, we find _hes_ = them. See Moral Ode, l.\n 186, O.E. Hom., 2nd Series: \"wel diere he _hes_ bohte.\"\n\n [23] Robt. of Gloucester, Shoreham, Dan. Michel's Ayenbite of Inwyt.\n\n [24] Deep he _them_ buried under an oak.\n\n [25] For Solomon find _them_ shall.\n\n [26] He took _them_.\n\n [27] All his _footsteps_ after him he filleth, draweth dust with his tail\n where he steppeth, or dust or dew (moisture), that they are not able\n to find _them_.\n\n [28] I have in one case taken the liberty of separating the pronoun from\n the verb (for the convenience of the reader), giving the MS. reading\n in the margin; but I am sorry now that I did not let them stand as in\n the original copy.\n\n [29] _Mes_ = _me_ + _es_ = one, them, occurs in O. E. Hom., 2nd Series.\n\n [30] All _he them_ had (he had them all) with might begotten (obtained).\n\n [31] Undealt (undivided) _he them_ laid, whereso _he them_ brought.\n\n The dove hath habits good,\n All _we them_ ought to have in mind\n\n (_i.e._ we ought to have them all in mind).\n\n Bilhah two children bore by him,\n Rachel _called them_ Dan, Naphtali;\n And Zilpah two sons to him bore,\n Leah _called them_ Gad and Asher.\n\n [34] The tabernacle he _put them_ in.\n\n [35] He _set them_ in the firmament.\n\n [36] _\u00f0ei_ occurs _once_ only in the present poem, _\u00fee\u021d\u021dr_, _\u00fee\u021d\u021dm_, not\n at all; it occurs twice in O.E. Hom., 2nd Series.\n\n [37] Philolog. Soc. Proceedings, vol. i. pp. 73, 261. _Almigtin_,\n almighty, p. 2, l. 30, is the only _adjective_ I find with this\n termination.\n\n [38] The dative of the A.S. _b\u00f3c_ was _b\u00e9c_.\n\n [39] _gebro\u00f0eren_ (A.S. _bro\u00f0ru_) occurs in the Semi-Sax. Gospels.\n\n [40] A.S. _cealfru_.\n\n [41] _cildru_.\n\n [42] _dura_.\n\n [43] _\u00e6gru_.\n\n [44] _handa_.\n\n [45] _c\u00fd_.\n\n [46] _lambru_.\n\n [47] _grei\u00f0e_ (prepare), _kipte_ (seized), _lit_ (stain), _li\u00f0e_ (listen),\n _mal_ (speech), _witterlike_ (truly), are found in Southern English,\n and may be the remains of the Anglian element in the A.Saxon.\n\n [48] Those marked * thus constantly occur in Northumbrian and Midland\n works (with Northern peculiarities) of the 14th century.\n\n [49] _fere_ occurs for _feren_, so _senwe_ = sinews (A.S. _sinu_, sing.,\n _sina_, pl.).\n\n [50] As a rule fem. nouns, and nouns of the _n_ declension, take the\n inflexion _-es_; as, '_sinnes_ same' (sin's shame), '_sowles_ frame'\n (soul's profit), '_helles_ male' (hell's mail), '_werldes_ drof'\n (world's assembly). The Bestiary contains the following genitives in\n _-e_:\u2014'_nese_ smel' (O.E. Miscell., p. 1), '_welle_ grund' (_Ib._, p.\n 3), '_kirke_ dure' (_Ib._, p. 6), '_soule_ drink' (_Ib._, p. 7),\n '_soule_ spuse' (_Ib._, p. 23), '_helle_ pine' (_Ib._, p. 24).\n\n [51] The forms in _-er_, _-est_, are properly adverbial and not\n adjectival.\n\n [52] _tig\u00f0e_ = _tithe_, tenth, occurs in l. 895, and _tig\u00f0es_ in l. 1628.\n\n [53] Orm uses the more Northern _\u021dho_ (Northumbrian _sco_).\n\n [54] _get_ = she it: \"al _get_ bit otwinne,\" she biteth it all in two\n (Bestiary, O.E. Miscell., p. 9).\n\n [55] See p. xix.\n\n [56] _\u00f0ei_ occurs but once only.\n\n [57] O.E. Hom., 2nd Series.\n\n [58] See pp. xix, xx.\n\n [59] See Preface to O.E. Hom., 2nd Series.\n\n [60] If _godes_ = god's, _seiden_ (pl.) may be an error for _seide_\n (sing.), and _hem_ will then = _he_ + _hem_, he them.\n\n [61] Chaucer constantly uses _men_ with a _verb_ in the _singular_ number,\n third person. See Notes and Queries for Feb. 8th, 1873, where I have\n shown that the West-Midland substituted _men_ for the Southern _me_.\n\n [62] The genitive and possessive are denoted by one form; as, _ure_, of\n us; _gure_, of you; _here_, of them.\n\n [63] Because elided in these cases.\n\n [64] The Bestiary is far more accurate in this respect.\n\n [65] _gangande_ rhymes with _standen_ (O.E. Miscell., p. 21, ll. 654,\n 655).\n\n [66] This form is used when the pronoun follows.\n\n [67] _Followed_ by the pronoun.\n\n [68] The second person of irregular verbs (pret.) does not occur in the\n poem. In the Ormulum the inflection is _-e_, which is occasionally\n dropped.\n\n [69] These forms do not occur in the poem.\n\n [70] _Sinden_ = are, occurs in the Bestiary and the Ormulum. _Sinde_ and\n _senden_ in O.E. Hom., 2nd Series.\n\nTHE STORY OF GENESIS AND EXODUS, ETC.\n\n Man ought to\n love those who instruct\n the lewd,\n\n MAn og to luuen \u00f0at rimes ren,\n \u00f0e Wi\u017f\u017fe\u00f0 wel \u00f0e logede men,\n hu man may him wel loken\n\n so that he who is\n not book-learned\n may love and\n serve God.\n\n \u00f0og he ne be lered on no boken, 4\n Luuen god and \u017feruen him ay,\n For he it hem wel gelden may,\n And to alle cri\u017ftenei men\n\n God shall love all\n Christian men,\n and give them\n soul-rest\n\n beren pai\u017f and luue bi-twen; 8\n \u00f0an \u017fal him almighti_n_ luuen,\n Her bi-ne\u00f0en and \u00f0und[71] abuuen,\n And giuen him bli\u017f\u017fe and \u017foules re\u017fte[n]\n\n that shall last\n evermore.\n\n \u00f0at him \u017fal earuermor[72] le\u017ften. 12\n\n Out of Latin is\n this song turned\n into English speech.\n\n Ut of latin \u00f0is \u017fong is dragen\n on engleis \u017fpeche, on \u017fo\u00f0e \u017fagen;\n\n Christian men\n ought to be as\n glad as birds are\n of dawn to hear\n the story\n\n Cristene men ogen ben \u017fo fagen\n \u017fo fueles arn q_u_an he it \u017fen dagen, 16\n \u00f0an man hem telled so\u00f0e tale\n Wid[73] londes \u017fpeche and wordes \u017fmale,\n\n of man's bliss and\n sorrow,\n\n Of bli\u017f\u017fes dune, of \u017forwes dale;\n Q_u_hu lucifer, \u00f0at deuel dwale, 20\n [Brogte mankinde in sinne and bale]\n\n and how salvation\n came through\n Christ,\n\n And held hem \u017fperd in helles male\n til god \u017frid him in manliched,\n dede mankinde bote and red, 24\n\n and destroyed the\n power of Satan.\n\n And un\u017fpered al \u00f0e fendes \u017fped,\n And halp \u00f0or he \u017fag mikel ned.\n\n [71] _read_ gund?\n\n [72] So in MS.\n\n [73] _read_ wi\u00f0\n\n\nGOD MADE HEAVEN AND EARTH BY HIS WORD.\n\n Biddi[74] hic \u017fingen no_n_ o\u00f0er led,\n \u00f0og[75] hic folgen idel-hed. 28\n\n [Fol. 1b.]\n Father, God of\n all things,\n\n FAder god of alle \u00f0hinge,\n Almigtin louerd, hege\u017ft kinge,\n\n enable thou me to\n sing this world's\n creation,\n\n \u00f0u giue me \u017feli timinge\n To thaunen \u00f0is werdes biginninge, 32\n \u00f0e, leuerd god, to wur\u00f0inge,\n Que\u00f0er \u017fo hic rede or \u017finge!\n\n wrought with\n wit, wisdom, and\n good love.\n\n Wit, and wisdam, and luue godd,\n And fer ear bi\u00f0ohte al in his modd, 36\n\n In the Creator's\n wisdom was all\n devised ere it\n came into being.\n\n In his wi\u017fdom was al bi\u00f0ogt\n Ear \u00f0anne it was on werlde brogt.\n In firme bigini[n]g, of nogt\n\n Heaven and earth\n were wrought\n when God bad\n exist time and\n place.\n\n Was heuene and er\u00f0e \u017famen wrogt; 40\n \u00f0o bad god wur\u00f0en \u017ftund and \u017ftede,\n \u00f0is middes werld \u00f0or-inne[76] he dede,\n\n First all was\n night.\n\n Al was \u00f0at firme \u00f0ro\u017fing in nigt,\n Til he wit hi\u017fe word made ligt; 44\n\n Light came by\n God's word, that\n is, His Son.\n\n Of hi\u017fe word, \u00f0u wi\u017f\u017fike mune,\n Hi\u017fe word, \u00f0at is, hi\u017fe wi\u017fe \u017fune,\n \u00f0e was of hin fer ear bi-foren\n\n He existed long\n before time.\n\n Or ani werldes time boren; 48\n And of hem two \u00f0at leue luuen,\n\n These two rule\n all things with\n wisdom.\n\n \u00f0e welden al her and abuuen,\n \u00f0at heli luue, \u00f0a[t] wi\u017fe wil,\n \u00f0at weldet alle \u00f0inge wit rigt and [\u017f]kil; 52\n\n In the Godhead\n there are three\n persons of one\n counsel and\n might.\n\n Migt bat wit word wur\u00f0en ligt,\n (Hali froure welt oc \u00f0at migt;\n\n [Fol. 2.]\n\n for \u00f0hre p_er_\u017fones and on reed,\n On migt and on godfulhed.) 56\n\n Light came at the\n divine command.\n\n \u00f0o \u017fo wur\u00f0 ligt \u017fo god it bad,\n fro \u00f0i\u017fterne\u017f\u017fe o \u017funde[r] \u017fad;\n\n Then was the first\n morning time\n that ever sprang\n in the world.\n\n \u00f0at wa\u017f \u00f0e firme morgen tid,\n \u00f0at euere \u017fprong in werld[e] wid. 60\n\n [74] _read_ bidde\n\n [75] 'may' is inserted between '\u00f0og' and 'hic' in a later hand.\n\n [76] MS. \u012bme.\n\n\nTHE DEVIL'S FALL FROM HEAVEN.

In the Ayenbite, p. 91, _vreme_ =\n_freme_ = _frame_ is used exactly in the sense of _frame_: \"We wylle\u00fe wel\n\u00feet we be yvonded (tempted) vor hit is oure _vreme_ ine vele maneres, vor\nwe bye\u00fe \u00fee more ymylded and \u00fee dredvoller and \u00fee more wys ine alle \u00feinges\nand \u00fee more wor\u00fe and \u00fee more asayd.\" 197 _oc_ = _og_ = _ow_, ought.\n\n\nP. 7. ll. 204-6\n\n Whilst it (the soul) followed holy will,\n God's self the while is pleased,\n And displeased when it loves sin.\n\n_un-lif_ is evidently an error for _un-lief_ = displeased = O.E. _unle\u00f4f_.\nIn the MS. the _f_ has a long tail, and might almost stand for an\nincomplete _k_. 217 _kiegt_ = _hight_ = threatened, literally promised.\n222 _ilc here_ = each of them. Cf. the expressions _her non_, _non her_ =\nnone of them. 228 _sib_ = akin, related; still preserved in _gossip_,\noriginally _godsib_. See Ayenbite, p. 36. 230 _wrocte_ = _wrogte_ = pret.\nof _worken_, to _ache_, _pain_, _hurt_. Cf. A.S. _rop-weorc_ =\nstomach-ache; _weorcsum_, irksome. In the Reliq. Antiq., p. 51, a receipt\nis given \"for evel and _werke_ in \u00fee bledder.\" On p. 54 of the same work we\nhave a receipt for the \"seke man\" whose \"heved _werkes_.\" 234 _\u00f0urte_, an\nabbreviated form of _\u00f0urfte_ = behoved. This verb is used with the _dative_\nof the pronoun.

Cf. l. 310, where _iwel sped_ =\n_iwel-sped_ = misfortune. Cf. O.E. _gode-happe_, prosperity, and\n_ille-happe_, mishap. 247 _seuendai_ = _seuend dai_ = seventh day. 250\n_newes_ = _a-new_, a genitival adjective used adverbially. Cf. our modern\nadverb _needs_, O.E. _nedes_, of necessity; _lives_, alive. (R. of\nGloucester, 301, 376. Owl and Nightingale, 1632.) _deathes_ = dead. (R. of\nGl., 375, 382. Owl and Nightingale, 1630.) 255 _rode-wold_ = rode tree. I\nhave printed _rode-wold_ and not _rode wold_, because the two expressions\nare widely different in meaning. In the latter phrase the word _wold_ = put\nto death, slain; in the former it is a suffix = -tree, -beam; so that\n_rode-wold_ corresponds exactly to the O.E. _rode-tre_ = _rood-tre_ = the\ncross.\n\n \"\u00dee ille men in manhed sal hym [Christ] se,\n Anly als he henged on \u00fee _rode-tre_,\" etc.\n \u2014(Hampole's P. of C., l. 5260.)\n\nCf. _dore-tree_, Piers Pl. 833, and the phrases \"hanged on a _tree_,\" \"the\ngallows _tree_,\" etc. O.E. _Tre_ = _tree_ = wood, beam (and _treen_ =\nwooden), still existing in _axle-tree_, _saddle-tree_, etc. The _-wold_ in\n_rode-wold_ must therefore = _-tre_ = wood, beam, which we still preserve\nin _threshold_. O.E. _threshwald_, _threshwold_ (A.S. _thersc-wald_,\n_thyrscwold_). The affix _-wold_ fortunately occurs again in lines 576 and\n614 in the word _arche-wold_ = ark-board.\n\n Sexe hundred ger noe was hold,\n Quan he dede him in \u00f0e _arche-wold_.\u2014(l. 576.)\n\n Sex hundred ger and on dan olde\n Noe \u017fag ut of \u00f0e _arche-wolde_.\u2014(l. 614.)\n\nA passage in C\u00e6dmon's poems furnishes us with the very term _ark-board_ by\nwhich we have rendered _arche-wold_.\n\n \"L\u00e6d swa ic \u00f0e hate\n under _earce-bord_\n eaforan \u00feine.\"\n\n Lead so I thee hete (command)\n under the ark-board\n thy progeny.\n \u2014(l. 23, p. 80.)\n\n \"Him \u00fea Noe gewat\n swa hine nergand het\n under _earce-bord_.\"\n\n Noah then departed\n as him the preserver bad,\n under the ark board.\n \u2014(l. 4, p. 82.)\n\n259\n\n _Si\u00f0en for-les \u00f0at dai is pris_\n Afterwards lost that day its honour.\n\n266\n\n _And seli sad fro \u00f0e forwrogt._\n And _the_ righteous separated from the wicked (accursed).\n\n_Seli_ constantly occurs in O.E. writers in the sense of _good_, and\n_unseli_, with the opposite meaning of _bad_, _wicked_. At first sight it\nwould appear that the _for_ in _forwrogt_ is the same prefix which we have\nin _forbid_, _forsake_, O.E. _for-worth_, \"good for nothing;\" but\n_forwrogt_ in O.E. = overworked, and, hence, fatigued. _Forwrogt_ seems to\nbe connected with the O.H.Ger. _foruuerget_, cursed; O.E. _weried_, cursed.\nThe first interpretation, however, is supported by the Goth. verb\n_fra-vaurkjan_; Ger. _verwirken_, s\u00fcndigen.\n\n271\n\n _Ligber he sridde a dere srud._\n Lucifer he shrouded (clothed) in dear (precious) shrouds (vestments).\n\n_Ligber_ is evidently _Ligtber_ = Lucifer. It occurs in the Ayenbite, p.\n10:\u2014\"And verst we wille\u00fe zigge of \u00fee zenne of prede, vor \u00feet wes \u00fee verste\nzenne and \u00fee aginninge of alle kueade, for prede brek verst vela\u021drede and\nordre, huanne _Li\u021dtbere_ the angel for his greate vayrhede and his greate\nwyt wolde by above \u00fee o\u00fere angeles and him wolde emni to God \u00feet hine zo\nvayr an zuo guod hedde ymad.\"\n\n272-276\n\n And he became in himself proud,\n And with that pride upon him waxed envy\n That evilly influenced all his conduct;\n Then might he no lord tolerate,\n That should in any wise control him.\n\n\nP. 9. l. 275 _\u00f0hauen_ = suffer, endure, tolerate.

Cf. _gu_ for _\u00f0u_, p. 11, ll. 365, 366, and\n_\u00f0und_ for _gund_. If _grauen_ be the original reading then it is\nequivalent to _greven_. O.F. _grever_, Lat. _gravare_, to injure, grieve.\n\n278\n\n _Min sete nor\u00f0 on heuene maken._\n\n \"Sette,\" he (Lucifer) said, \"mi sete I sal\n Gain him \u00feat heist es of alle;\n In \u00fee _north_ side it sal be sette,\n O me seruis sal he non gette.\"\u2014(Cursor Mundi, fol. 4b.)\n\n282 _geuelic_ = _geuenlic_ = like. Cf. the A.S. _ge-efenl\u00e6can_, to be\nlike, to imitate.

In Early English writers we meet with\nseveral derivatives of this word, as _kueadliche_, wickedly, _kueadvol_,\nsinful. (See Ayenbite of Inwyt, p. 4, and extract in Note to l. 271, p.\n125.)\n\n301\n\n _Euerilc \u00f0hing haued [haue\u00f0] he geue name_,\n To everything hath he given name.\n\n309-310 Yet I ween I know of a device, that shall bring them misfortune.\n\n\nP. 10. l. 314 _\u00f0or buten hunte_, there without search, or hunting, without\ndelay; _or_ thereabout to _hunt_ or search. 316 _bilirten_, to deprive of\nby treachery, to cheat a person out of a thing.\n\n \"\u00f0a herodes ges\u00e6gh for-\u00f0on bisuicen\n [& _bilyrtet_] w\u00e6s from dryum, [& tungul\n cr\u00e6ftgum] ura\u00f0 w\u00e6s sui\u00f0e.\"\n (Matthew ii. 16, Northumbrian version.)\n\n \"Listne\u00f0 nu a wunder,\n \u00f0at tis der do\u00f0 for hunger:\n go\u00f0 o felde to a furg,\n and falle\u00f0 \u00f0ar-inne,\n in eried lond er in er\u00f0-chine,\n forto _bilirten_ fugeles.\"\n\n Listeneth now to a wonder,\n That this deer (fox) doth for hunger:\n Goeth a-field to a furrow,\n And falleth therein,\n In eared land or in earth-chink,\n For to deceive fowls.\n \u2014(O.E.
