About this book
Old English for beginners, with grammar, notes and a glossary. Henry Sweet kept this primer strictly elementary: no poetry, only easy prose from the Chronicle, the martyrdom of King Edmund and passages from the Gospels, preceded by short sentences taken mainly from the Gospels, Ælfric's Homilies and the Chronicle and grouped by the grammatical forms they show. The spelling is made uniform on an early West-Saxon basis. Sweet meant it as a lead-in to his larger Anglo-Saxon Reader. This is the eighth edition, revised, printed at Oxford in 1905.
