Excerpt from Dictionary of Archaic and Provincial Words, Vol. 1 of 2: Obsolete Phrases, Proverbs, and Ancient Customs, From the Fourteenth Century It was thought that copies with large margins, sufficient, with proper care, to contain any reasonable amount of annotation, would be found much more useful than interleaved Copies of the octavo edition.

Excerpt from A Dictionary of Archaic and Provincial Words, Vol. 1 of 2: Obsolete Phrases, Proverbs, and Ancient Customs, From the Fourteenth Century; A-I The numerous quotations I have given from early manuscripts will generally be found to be literal copies from the originals, without any attempt at remedying the grammatical errors of the scribes, so frequent in manuscripts of the fifteenth century. The terminal contractions were then, in fact, rapidly vanishing as part of the grammatical construction of our language, and the representative of the vowel terminations of the anglo-saxon was lost before the end of that century. It is only within the last few years that this subject has been considered by our editors, and it is much to be regretted that the texts of Ritson, Weber, and others are therefore not always to be depended upon. For this reason I have had recourse in some cases to the original manuscripts in preference to using the printed team, but, generally, the quotations from manuscripts have been taken from pieces not yet published. Some few have been printed during the time this work has been in the press, a period of more than two years.
