Mi PREFACE. y KyK y s This book was originally designed to accompany an edition of Ulfilas for which I was collecting materials some eight or nine years ago, but which various considerations led me to lay aside. A s, however, it had long seemed to me equally strange and deplorable that not a single work adapted to aid a student in acquiring a knowledge of Gothic was to be found in the English book-market, I proceeded to give most of the time at my disposal to the building up of this I ntroduction, on a somewhat larger scale than was at first intended, in the hope of being able to promote the study of a dialect which, apart from its native force and beauty, has special claims on the attention of more than one important class of students. By the student of linguistic science, indeed, these claims are at once admitted; for the Gothic is one of the pillars on which rests the comparative grammar both of the older I ndo-E uropean languages in general, and also, pre-eminently, of the Teutonic cluster of dialects in particular. But a good knowledge of Gothic is scarcely less valuable to the student of the English language, at any rate, of the Ancient English or A nglo-S axon; upon the phonology of which, and indeed the whole grammar, the Gothic sheds a flood of light that is not to be got from any other source.
