The Society has never had money\nenough to produce the Texts that could easily have been got ready for\nit; and many Editors are now anxious to send to press the work they have\nprepared. The necessity has therefore arisen for trying to increase the\nnumber of the Society\u2019s members, and to induce its well-wishers to help\nit by gifts of money, either in one sum or by instalments. The Committee\ntrust that every Member will bring before his or her friends and\nacquaintances the Society\u2019s claims for liberal support. Until all Early\nEnglish MSS. are printed, no proper History of our Language or Social\nLife is possible.\n\nThe Subscription to the Society, which constitutes membership, is \u00a31\n1_s._ a year for the ORIGINAL SERIES, and \u00a31 1_s._ for the EXTRA SERIES,\ndue in advance on the 1st of JANUARY, and should be paid by Cheque,\nPostal Order, or Money-Order, crost \u2018Union Bank of London,\u2019 to the\nHon. Secretary, W. A. DALZIEL, Esq., 67, Victoria Rd., Finsbury Park,\nLondon, N. Members who want their Texts posted to them, must add to their\nprepaid Subscriptions 1_s._ for the Original Series, and 1_s._ for the\nExtra Series, yearly. The Society\u2019s Texts are also sold separately at\nthe prices put after them in the Lists; but Members can get back-Texts\nat one-third less than the List-prices by sending the cash for them in\nadvance to the Hon. Secretary.\n\n\u261e The Society intends to complete, as soon as its funds will allow, the\nReprints of its out-of-print Texts of the year 1866, and also of nos. 20,\n26 and 33. Prof. Skeat has finisht _Partenay_; Dr. McKnight of Ohio _King\nHorn_ and _Floris and Blancheflour_; and Dr. Furnivall his _Political,\nReligious and Love Poems_ and _Myrc\u2019s Duties of a Parish Priest_. Dr.\nOtto Glauning has undertaken _Seinte Marherete_; and Dr. Furnivall has\n_Hali Meidenhad_ in type. As the cost of these Reprints, if they were\nnot needed, would have been devoted to fresh Texts, the Reprints will\nbe sent to all Members in lieu of such Texts. Though called \u2018Reprints,\u2019\nthese books are new editions, generally with valuable additions, a fact\nnot noticed by a few careless receivers of them, who have complained\nthat they already had the volumes. As the Society\u2019s copies of the\n_Facsimile of the Epinal MS._ issued as an Extra Volume in 1883 are\nexhausted, Mr. J. H. Hessels, M.A., of St. John\u2019s Coll., Cambridge, has\nkindly undertaken an edition of the MS. for the Society. This will be\nsubstituted for the Facsimile as an 1883 book, but will be also issued to\nall the present Members.\n\n[Sidenote: _Original and Extra Series Books 1903-1906._]\n\n=July 1904.= The Original-Series Texts for 1903 were: No. 122, Part II of\n_The Laud MS.

Hen. V,\n_Twenty-six Political and other Poems_ from the Digby MS. 102, &c.,\nedited by Dr. J.

This book will show the income and outlay of the\nchurch; the drink provided for its Palm-Sunday players, its officers\u2019\nexcursions into Kent and Essex, its dealing with the Plague, the disposal\nof its goods at the Reformation, &c., &c., and will help our members to\nrealize the church-life of its time. The third Text will be Part I of\n_An Alphabet of Tales_, a very interesting collection, englisht in the\nNorthern Dialect, about 1440, from the Latin _Alphabetum Narrationum_ by\nEtienne de B\u00e9san\u00e7on, and edited by Mrs. M. M. Banks from the unique MS.\nin the King\u2019s Library in the British Museum; the above-named three texts\nare now ready for issue. Those for 1905 and 1906 will probably be chosen\nfrom Part II of the _Exeter Book_\u2014Anglo-Saxon Poems from the unique\nMS. in Exeter Cathedral\u2014re-edited by Israel Gollancz, M.A.; Part II of\nProf. Dr. Holthausen\u2019s _Vices and Virtues_; Part II of _Jacob\u2019s Well_,\nedited by Dr. Brandeis; the Alliterative _Siege of Jerusalem_, edited\nby the late Prof. Dr. E. K\u00f6lbing and Prof. Dr. Kaluza; an Introduction\nand Glossary to the _Minor Poems of the Vernon MS._ by H. Hartley, M.A.;\nAlain Chartier\u2019s _Quadrilogue_, edited from the unique MS. Univ. Coll.\nOxford MS. No. 85, by Mr. J. W. H. Atkins of Owen\u2019s College; a Northern\nVerse _Chronicle of England_ to 1327 A.D., in 42,000 lines, about 1420\nA.D., edited by M. L. Perrin, B.A.; Prof. Bruce\u2019s Introduction to _The\nEnglish Conquest of Ireland_, Part II; and Dr. Furnivall\u2019s edition of\nthe _Lichfield Gilds_, which is all printed, and waits only for the\nIntroduction, that Prof. E. C. K. Gonner has kindly undertaken to write\nfor the book. Canon Wordsworth of Marlborough has given the Society a\ncopy of the Leofric Canonical Rule, Latin and Anglo-Saxon, Parker MS.\n191, C. C. C. Cambridge, and Prof. Napier will edit it, with a fragment\nof the englisht Capitula of Bp. Theodulf. The _Coventry Leet Book_\nis being copied for the Society by Miss M. Dormer Harris\u2014helpt by a\ncontribution from the Common Council of the City,\u2014and will be publisht by\nthe Society (Miss Harris editing), as its contribution to our knowledge\nof the provincial city life of the 15th century.\n\nDr. Brie of Berlin has undertaken to edit the prose _Brut_ or _Chronicle\nof Britain_ attributed to Sir John Mandeville, and printed by Caxton. He\nhas already examined more than 100 English MSS. and several French ones,\nto get the best text, and find out its source.\n\nThe Extra-Series Texts for 1904 will be chosen from Lydgate\u2019s\n_DeGuilleville\u2019s Pilgrimage of the Life of Man_, Part III, edited by\nMiss Locock; Dr. M. Konrath\u2019s re-edition of _William of Shoreham\u2019s\nPoems_, Part II; Dr. E. A. Kock\u2019s edition of Lovelich\u2019s _Merlin_ from the\nunique MS. in Corpus Christi Coll., Cambridge; the _Macro Plays_, edited\nfrom Mr. Gurney\u2019s MS. by Dr. Furnivall and A. W. Pollard, M.A.; Prof.\nErdmann\u2019s re-edition of Lydgate\u2019s _Siege of Thebes_ (issued also by the\nChaucer Society); Miss Rickert\u2019s re-edition of the Romance of _Emare_;\nProf. I. Gollancz\u2019s re-edition of two Alliterative Poems, _Winner and\nWaster_, &c., ab. 1360, lately issued for the Roxburghe Club; Dr. Norman\nMoore\u2019s re-edition of _The Book of the Foundation of St. Bartholomew\u2019s\nHospital, London_, from the unique MS. ab. 1425, which gives an account\nof the Founder, Rahere, and the miraculous cures wrought at the Hospital;\n_The Craft of Nombrynge_, with other of the earliest englisht Treatises\non Arithmetic, edited by R. Steele, B.A.; and Miss Warren\u2019s two-text\nedition of _The Dance of Death_ from the Ellesmere and other MSS.\n\nThese Extra-Series Texts ought to be completed by their Editors: the\nSecond Part of the prose Romance of _Melusine_\u2014Introduction, with ten\nfacsimiles of the best woodblocks of the old foreign black-letter\neditions, Glossary, &c., by A. K. Donald, B.A. (now in India); and a\nnew edition of the famous Early-English Dictionary (English and Latin),\n_Promptorium Parvulorum_, from the Winchester MS., ab. 1440 A.D.: in\nthis, the Editor, the Rev. A. L. Mayhew, M.A., will follow and print his\nMS. not only in its arrangement of nouns first, and verbs second, under\nevery letter of the Alphabet, but also in its giving of the flexions of\nthe words. The Society\u2019s edition will thus be the first modern one that\nreally represents its original, a point on which Mr. Mayhew\u2019s insistence\nwill meet with the sympathy of all our Members.\n\n[Sidenote: _Texts preparing: The Texts for 1906, 1907 &c._]\n\nThe Texts for the Extra Series in 1906 and 1907 will be chosen from _The\nThree Kings\u2019 Sons_, Part II, the Introduction &c. by Prof. Dr. Leon\nKellner; Part II of _The Chester Plays_, re-edited from the MSS., with a\nfull collation of the formerly missing Devonshire MS., by Mr. G. England\nand Dr. Matthews; the Parallel-Text of the only two MSS. of the _Owl and\nNightingale_, edited by Mr. G. F. H. Sykes (at press); Prof. Jespersen\u2019s\neditions of John Hart\u2019s _Orthographie_ (MS. 1551 A.D.; blackletter 1569),\nand _Method to teach Reading_, 1570; Deguilleville\u2019s _Pilgrimage of the\nSowle_, in English prose, edited by Prof. Dr. L. Kellner. (For the three\nprose versions of _The Pilgrimage of the Life of Man_\u2014two English, one\nFrench\u2014an Editor is wanted.) Members are askt to realise the fact that\nthe Society has now 50 years\u2019 work on its Lists,\u2014at its present rate of\nproduction,\u2014and that there is from 100 to 200 more years\u2019 work to come\nafter that. The year 2000 will not see finisht all the Texts that the\nSociety ought to print. The need of more Members and money is pressing.\nOffers of help from willing Editors have continually to be declined\nbecause the Society has no funds to print their Texts.\n\nAn urgent appeal is hereby made to Members to increase the list of\nSubscribers to the E. E. Text Society. It is nothing less than a scandal\nthat the Hellenic Society should have nearly 1000 members, while the\nEarly English Text Society has not 300!\n\n[Sidenote: _Deguilleville._]\n\nBefore his death in 1895, Mr. G. N. Currie was preparing an edition of\nthe 15th and 16th century Prose Versions of Guillaume de Deguilleville\u2019s\n_Pilgrimage of the Life of Man_, with the French prose version by Jean\nGallopes, from Lord Aldenham\u2019s MS., he having generously promist to pay\nthe extra cost of printing the French text, and engraving one or two\nof the illuminations in his MS. But Mr. Currie, when on his deathbed,\ncharged a friend to burn _all_ his MSS. which lay in a corner of his\nroom, and unluckily all the E. E. T. S.\u2019s copies of the Deguilleville\nprose versions were with them, and were burnt with them, so that the\nSociety will be put to the cost of fresh copies, Mr. Currie having died\nin debt.\n\nGuillaume de Deguilleville, monk of the Cistercian abbey of Chaalis, in\nthe diocese of Senlis, wrote his first verse _P\u00e8lerinaige de l\u2019Homme_\nin 1330-1 when he was 36.[1] Twenty-five (or six) years after, in 1355,\nhe revised his poem, and issued a second version of it,[2] a revision\nof which was printed ab. 1500. Of the prose representative of the first\nversion, 1330-1, a prose Englishing, about 1430 A.D., was edited by Mr.\nAldis Wright for the Roxburghe Club in 1869, from MS. Ff. 5. 30 in the\nCambridge University Library. Other copies of this prose English are\nin the Hunterian Museum, Glasgow, Q. 2. 25; Sion College, London; and\nthe Laud Collection in the Bodleian, no. 740.[3] A copy in the Northern\ndialect is MS. G. 21, in St. John\u2019s Coll., Cambridge, and this is the\nMS. which will be edited for the E. E. Text Society. The Laud MS. 740\nwas somewhat condenst and modernised, in the 17th century, into MS. Ff.\n6. 30, in the Cambridge University Library:[4] \u201cThe Pilgrime or the\nPilgrimage of Man in this World,\u201d copied by Will. Baspoole, whose copy\n\u201cwas verbatim written by Walter Parker, 1645, and from thence transcribed\nby G. G. 1649; and from thence by W. A. 1655.\u201d This last copy may have\nbeen read by, or its story reported to, Bunyan, and may have been the\ngroundwork of his _Pilgrim\u2019s Progress_. It will be edited for the E.\nE. T. Soc., its text running under the earlier English, as in Mr.\nHerrtage\u2019s edition of the _Gesta Romanorum_ for the Society. In February\n1464,[5] Jean Gallopes\u2014a clerk of Angers, afterwards chaplain to John,\nDuke of Bedford, Regent of France\u2014turned Deguilleville\u2019s first verse\n_P\u00e8lerinaige_ into a prose _P\u00e8lerinage de la vie humaine_.[6] By the\nkindness of Lord Aldenham, as above mentiond, Gallopes\u2019s French text will\nbe printed opposite the early prose northern Englishing in the Society\u2019s\nedition.\n\nThe Second Version of Deguilleville\u2019s _P\u00e8lerinaige de l\u2019Homme_, A.D. 1355\nor -6, was englisht in verse by Lydgate in 1426. Of Lydgate\u2019s poem, the\nlarger part is in the Cotton MS. Vitellius C. xiii (leaves 2-308). This\nMS. leaves out Chaucer\u2019s englishing of Deguilleville\u2019s _A B C_ or _Prayer\nto the Virgin_, of which the successive stanzas start with A, B, C, and\nrun all thro\u2019 the alphabet; and it has 2 main gaps, besides many small\nones from the tops of leaves being burnt in the Cotton fire. All these\ngaps (save the A B C) have been fild up from the Stowe MS. 952 (which old\nJohn Stowe completed) and from the end of the other imperfect MS. Cotton,\nTiberius A vii. Thanks to the diligence of the old Elizabethan tailor\nand manuscript-lover, a complete text of Lydgate\u2019s poem can be given,\nthough that of an inserted theological prose treatise is incomplete. The\nBritish Museum French MSS. (Harleian 4399,[7] and Additional 22,937[8]\nand 25,594[9]) are all of the First Version.\n\nBesides his first _P\u00e8lerinaige de l\u2019homme_ in its two versions,\nDeguilleville wrote a second, \u201cde l\u2019ame separee du corps,\u201d and a third,\n\u201cde nostre seigneur Iesus.\u201d Of the second, a prose Englishing of 1413,\n_The Pilgrimage of the Sowle_ (with poems by Hoccleve, already printed\nfor the Society with that author\u2019s _Regement of Princes_), exists in the\nEgerton MS. 615,[10] at Hatfield, Cambridge (Univ. Kk. 1. 7, and Caius),\nOxford (Univ. Coll. and Corpus), and in Caxton\u2019s edition of 1483. This\nversion has \u2018somewhat of addicions\u2019 as Caxton says, and some shortenings\ntoo, as the maker of both, the first translater, tells us in the MSS.\nCaxton leaves out the earlier englisher\u2019s interesting Epilog in the\nEgerton MS. This prose englishing of the _Sowle_ will be edited for the\nSociety by Prof. Dr. Leon Kellner after that of the _Man_ is finisht, and\nwill have Gallopes\u2019s French opposite it, from Lord Aldenham\u2019s MS., as his\ngift to the Society. Of the Pilgrimage of Jesus, no englishing is known.\n\n[Sidenote: _Anglo-Saxon Psalters._]\n\nAs to the MS. Anglo-Saxon Psalters, Dr. Hy. Sweet has edited the oldest\nMS., the Vespasian, in his _Oldest English Texts_ for the Society, and\nMr. Harsley has edited the latest, c. 1150, Eadwine\u2019s Canterbury Psalter.\nThe other MSS., except the Paris one, being interlinear versions,\u2014some\nof the Roman-Latin redaction, and some of the Gallican,\u2014Prof. Logeman\nhas prepared for press, a Parallel-Text edition of the first twelve\nPsalms, to start the complete work. He will do his best to get the Paris\nPsalter\u2014tho\u2019 it is not an interlinear one\u2014into this collective edition;\nbut the additional matter, especially in the Verse-Psalms, is very\ndifficult to manage. If the Paris text cannot be parallelised, it will\nform a separate volume. The Early English Psalters are all independent\nversions, and will follow separately in due course.\n\n[Sidenote: _More Money wanted._]\n\nThrough the good offices of the Examiners, some of the books for the\nEarly-English Examinations of the University of London will be chosen\nfrom the Society\u2019s publications, the Committee having undertaken to\nsupply such books to students at a large reduction in price. The net\nprofits from these sales will be applied to the Society\u2019s Reprints.\n\nMembers are reminded that _fresh Subscribers are always wanted_, and\nthat the Committee can at any time, on short notice, send to press an\nadditional Thousand Pounds\u2019 worth of work.\n\n[Sidenote: _Saints\u2019 Lives._]\n\nThe Subscribers to the Original Series must be prepared for the issue\nof the whole of the Early English _Lives of Saints_, sooner or later.\nThe Society cannot leave out any of them, even though some are dull. The\nSinners would doubtless be much more interesting. But in many Saints\u2019\nLives will be found valuable incidental details of our forefathers\u2019\nsocial state, and all are worthful for the history of our language. The\nLives may be lookt on as the religious romances or story-books of their\nperiod.\n\nThe Standard Collection of Saints\u2019 Lives in the Corpus and Ashmole MSS.,\nthe Harleian MS. 2277, &c. will repeat the Laud set, our No. 87, with\nadditions, and in right order. (The foundation MS. (Laud 108) had to be\nprinted first, to prevent quite unwieldy collations.) The Supplementary\nLives from the Vernon and other MSS. will form one or two separate\nvolumes.\n\nBesides the Saints\u2019 Lives, Trevisa\u2019s englishing of _Bartholom\u00e6us de\nProprietatibus Rerum_, the medi\u00e6val Cyclop\u00e6dia of Science, &c., will\nbe the Society\u2019s next big undertaking. Dr. R. von Fleischhacker will\nedit it. Prof. Napier of Oxford, wishing to have the whole of our MS.\nAnglo-Saxon in type, and accessible to students, will edit for the\nSociety all the unprinted and other Anglo-Saxon Homilies which are not\nincluded in Thorpe\u2019s edition of \u00c6lfric\u2019s prose,[11] Dr. Morris\u2019s of the\nBlickling Homilies, and Prof. Skeat\u2019s of \u00c6lfric\u2019s Metrical Homilies.\nThe late Prof. K\u00f6lbing left complete his text, for the Society, of the\n_Ancren Riwle_, from the best MS., with collations of the other four, and\nthis will be edited for the Society by Dr. Th\u00fcmmler. Mr. Harvey means to\nprepare an edition of the three MSS. of the _Earliest English Metrical\nPsalter_, one of which was edited by the late Mr. Stevenson for the\nSurtees Society.\n\nMembers of the Society will learn with pleasure that its example has been\nfollowed, not only by the Old French Text Society which has done such\nadmirable work under its founders Profs. Paul Meyer and Gaston Paris, but\nalso by the Early Russian Text Society, which was set on foot in 1877,\nand has since issued many excellent editions of old MS. Chronicles, &c.\n\nMembers will also note with pleasure the annexation of large tracts of\nour Early English territory by the important German contingent, the\nlate Professors Zupitza and K\u00f6lbing, the living Hausknecht, Einenkel,\nHaenisch, Kaluza, Hupe, Adam, Holthausen, Schick, Herzfeld, Brandeis,\nSieper, Konrath, W\u00fclfing, &c. Scandinavia has also sent us Prof. Erdmann\nand Dr. E. A. Kock; Holland, Prof. H. Logeman, who is now working in\nBelgium; France, Prof. Paul Meyer\u2014with Gaston Paris as adviser (alas,\nnow dead);\u2014Italy, Prof. Lattanzi; Austria, Dr. von Fleischhacker; while\nAmerica is represented by the late Prof. Child, by Dr. Mary Noyes\nColvin, Miss Rickert, Profs. Mead, McKnight, Triggs, Perrin, &c. The\nsympathy, the ready help, which the Society\u2019s work has cald forth from\nthe Continent and the United States, have been among the pleasantest\nexperiences of the Society\u2019s life, a real aid and cheer amid all troubles\nand discouragements. All our Members are grateful for it, and recognise\nthat the bond their work has woven between them and the lovers of\nlanguage and antiquity across the seas is one of the most welcome results\nof the Society\u2019s efforts.\n\n\n=ORIGINAL SERIES.=\n\n 1. =Early English Alliterative Poems=, ab. 1360 A.D., ed.
