Excerpt from First Middle English Primer: Extracts From the Ancren Riwle and Ormulum
IN the present edition I have made such alterations and additions as seemed likely to increase the utility of the book. In doing so I have been greatly aided by Mr. C. Stoffel, of Amsterdam, to whom I take this opportunity of ex pressing my thanks. I also have to acknowledge some useful criticisms received from Dr. F. Holthausen. I have, on the other hand, omitted. To give the ms. Readings in cases of correction, as I now consider such details out of place in a primer.

Excerpt from First Middle English Primer: Extracts From the Ancren Riwle and Ormulum
The extracts have been carefully chosen not only from a linguistic, but also from a literary and social-historical point of view. The student who has carefully worked through them will hardly need to be told that the A. R. Is one of the most perfect models of simple, natural, eloquent prose in our language; without it indeed, the history of English prose from the close of the Old E. Period down to the beginning of the seventeenth century would be little more than a dreary blank. As a picture of contemporary life, manners, and feeling it cannot be over-estimated. The passage (p. 34) in which Christ is described as a Norman knight in homeliest English phrase is alone enough to give a vivid idea of that fusion of English and French traditions and sentiments which - in spite of Ivanfioe - was almost completely carried out by the beginning of the thirteenth century. The con elusion (p. 39) of the allegory of Christ's wooing of the soul is, on the other hand, thoroughly Old English in its com bined picturesqueness and grandeur. Thoroughly English.
