MDCCCL. TO JOHN DAVID MACBRIDE ESQ. ^nnctpal of iJHagtfalme f^all, ETC. ETC, IN TO KEN O F RESPECT AND ESTEEM PREFACE, Anglo-Saxon was spoken by our forefathers in Eng-land for more than five hundred years; from it havesprung the greater part of our local and family names,very many of our old, and almost all our provincialwords and sayings, and fifteen twentieths of what wedaily think, and speak, and write. No Englishmantherefore altogether ignorant of Anglo-Saxon can have athorough knowledge of his own mother-tongue, while thelanguage itself, to say nothing of the many valuable andinteresting works preserved in it, may in copiousness ofwords, strength of expression, and grammatical precision,vie with modern German.# The present object is to furnish the learner, if it maybe, w7ith a cheaper, easier, more comprehensive, and notless trustworthy guide to this tongue than may hithertohave been within his reach.
