Book Description

Excerpt from The Pronoun of Address in English Literature of the Thirteenth Century I realize that my plan of giving as far as possible the exact number of occurrences of forms and constructions may Show more plainly to the observant reader things that I have overlooked. Moreover it may seem at times to lay too much stress upon forms which are probably mere scribal or editorial errors. Nevertheless, the conclusions that can be drawn from definite statements, when those statements are reasonably accurate, as I hope all will be found to be, are so much more satisfactory than mere general statements that I have ventured to give my findings largely in statistical form.
