Overview

Excerpt from Reliques of Ancient English Poetry: Consisting of Old Heroic Ballads, Songs and Other Pieces of Our Earlier Poets, Together With Some Few of Later Date In all editions of the Reliques with which I am acquainted, the Glossaries remain as Percy left them. I have endeavoured to improve and enlarge them in this volume. The obscurer words are ex plained at the foot of each page, and, while constantly availing myself of Percy's assistance, I have sought other guides when he was silent. Mr. Halliwell's Dictionary of Archaic Phrases, and Mr. T. Wright's Obsolete and Provincial English, are useful com panions.
