PREFACE

(By professor Skeat.)

The present work is intended to meet, in some measure,the requirements of those who wish to make some studyof Middle-English, and who find a difficulty in obtainingsuch assistance as will enable them to find out themeanings and etymologies of the words most essentialto their purpose.

The best Middle-English Dictionary, that by Dr. MAtznerof Berlin, has only reached the end of the letterH; and it is probable that it will not be completedfor many years. The only Middle-English Dictionarythat has been carried on to the end of the alphabetis that by the late Dr. Stratmann, of Krefeld.This is a valuable work, and is indispensable forthe more advanced student. However, the presentwork will still supply a deficiency, as it differsfrom Stratmann’s Dictionary in many particulars.We have chosen as our Main Words, where possible,the most typical of the forms or spellings of theperiod of Chaucer and Piers Plowman; in Stratmann,on the other hand, the form chosen as Main Word isgenerally the oldest form in which it appears, frequentlyone of the twelfth century. Moreover, with regardto authorities, we refer in the case of the great majorityof our forms to a few, cheap, easily accessible works,whereas Stratmann’s authorities are mainly thenumerous and expensive publications of the Early EnglishText Society. Lastly, we have paid special attentionto the French element in Middle-English, whereas Stratmannis somewhat deficient in respect of words of Frenchorigin [Footnote 1: A new and thoroughly revisededition of Stratmann’s Dictionary is being preparedby Mr. Henry Bradley, for the Delegates of the ClarendonPress.] The book which has generally been found ofmost assistance to the learner is probably Halliwell’sDictionary of Archaic and Provincial Words; but thisis not specially confined to the Middle-English period,and the plan of it differs in several respects fromthat of the present work.

The scope of this volume will be best understood byan explanation of the circ*mstances that gave riseto it. Some useful and comparatively inexpensivevolumes illustrative of the Middle-English period havebeen issued by the Clarendon Press; all of which arefurnished with glossaries, explaining all the importantwords, with exact references to the passages whereinthe words occur. In particular, the three usefulhand-books containing Specimens of English (from 1150down to 1580) together supply no less than sixty-sevencharacteristic extracts from the most important literarymonuments of this period; and the three glossariesto these books together fill more than 370 pages ofclosely-printed type in double columns. The ideasuggested itself that it would be highly desirableto bring the very useful information thus alreadycollected under one alphabet, and this has nowbeen effected. At the same time, a referencehas in every case been carefully given to the particularGlossarial Index which registers each form here cited,so that it is perfectly easy for any one who consultsour book to refer, not merely to the particular Indexthus noted, but to the references given in that Index;and so, by means of such references, to find everypassage referred to, with its proper context.Moreover the student only requires, for this purpose,

a small array of the text-books in the Clarendon PressSeries, instead of a more or less complete set ofeditions of Middle-English texts, the possession ofwhich necessitates a considerable outlay of money.By this plan, so great a compression of informationhas been achieved, that a large number of the articlesgive a summary such as can be readily expanded toa considerable length, by the exercise of a very littletrouble; and thus the work is practically as full ofmaterial as if it had been three or four times itspresent size. A couple of examples will shew*what this really means.

At p. 26 is the following entry:—­

’Bi-heste, sb. promise, S, S2,C2, P; byheste, S2; beheste, S2; byhest,S2; bihese, S; biheest, W; bihese,pl., S.—­AS. be-hA|*s.’

By referring to the respective indexes here cited,such as S (=Glossary to Specimens of English, PartI), and the like, we easily expand this article intothe following:—­

’Bi-heste, sb. promise, S (9.19); S2 (I a. 184); C2 (B37, 41, 42, F 698);P (3. 126); byheste, S2 (18 b. 25);beheste, S2 (14 a. 3); byhest,S2 (12. 57, 18 b. 9, [where it may also beexplained by grant]); bihese, S (whereit is used as a plural); biheest, W (promise,command, Lk. xxiv. 49, Rom. iv. 13; pl. biheestis,Heb. xi. 13); bihese, S (pl. behests,promises, 4 d. 55).—­AS. behA|*s’

In order to exhibit the full meaning of this—­whichrequires no further explanation to those who havein hand the books denoted by S, S2, &c.—­itwould be necessary to print the article at considerablelength, as follows:—­

’Biheste, sb. promise; “dusibiheste” a foolish promise, (extractfrom) Ancren Riwle, l. 19; “and wel lute wulehulde A3/4e biheste A3/4at he nom,” (extractfrom) Robert of Gloucester, l. 184; “holdethyour bAheste,” Chaucer, Introd. to Manof Law’s Prologue, l. 37; “bihesteis dette,” same, l. 41; “al my biheste”same, l. 42; “or breken his biheste”Chaucer, sequel to Squieres Tale, l. 698; “A3/4orwfals biheste,” Piers Plowman, Text B,Pass. iii, l. 126; “to vol-vulle (fulfil) A3/4atbyheste” Trevisa (extract from), lib.vi. cap. 29, l. 25; “the lond of promyssioun,or of beheste,” Prol. to Mandeville’sTravels, l. 3; “wiA3/4 fair by-hest,”William and the Werwolf, l. 57; “A3/4e byhest(promise, or grant) of oA3/4ere menne kyngdom,”Trevisa, lib. vi. cap. 29, l. 9; “y schal sendethe biheest of my fadir in-to 3*ou,”Wyclif, Luke xxiv. 49; “not bi the lawe is biheestto Abraham,” Wycl. Rom. iv. 13; “whannethe biheestis weren not takun,” Wycl.Heb. xi. 13; “longenge to godes bihese”Old Eng. Homilies, Dominica iv. post Pascha,l. 55.’

We thus obtain fifteen excellent examples of the useof this word, with the full context and an exact reference(easily verified) in every case. And, in theabove instance, all the quotations lie within thecompass of the eleven texts in the Clarendon PressSeries denoted, respectively, by S, S2, S3, C, C2,C3, W, W2, P, H, and G.

The original design was to make use of these text-booksonly; but it was so easy to extend it by includingexamples to be obtained from other Glossaries andDictionaries, that a considerable selection of interestingwords was added from these, mainly for the sake ofillustrating the words in the Clarendon text-books.These illustrative words can be fully or partiallyverified by those who happen to possess all or someof the works cited, or they can safely be taken ontrust, as really occurring there, any mistake beingdue to such authority.

A second example will make this clearer. ’Brant,adj. steep, high, MD, HD; brent, JD;brentest, superl. S2.—­AS.brant (bront); cp. Swed. brant,Icel. brattr.’

Omitting the etymology, the above information is givenin two short lines. Those who possess the ‘Specimensof English’ will easily find the example ofthe superl. brentest. By consulting MAtzner’s,Halliwell’s, and Jamieson’s Dictionaries,further information can be obtained, and the fullarticle will appear as follows:—­

’Brant, adj. steep, high, MD [brant,brent, adj. ags. brand, arduus,altus, altn. brattr, altschw. branter,schw. brant, bratt, dAn, brat, sch.brent, nordengl. Diall. brant:cf. “brant, steepe,” ManipulusVocabulorum, p. 25: steil, hoch.—­“Aponthe bald Bucifelon brant up he sittes,”King Alexander, ed. Stevenson, p. 124; “Thirmountaynes ware als brant upri3*e as thay hadbene walles,” MS. quoted in Halliwell’sDiet., p. 206; “Hy3*e bonkkes & brent,”Gawain and the Grene Knight, l. 2165; “Bowedto A3/4e hy3* bonk A3/4er brentest hit wern,”Alliterative Poems, ed. Morris, Poem B, l. 379];HD [brant, steep. North: “Brantagainst Flodden Hill,” explained by Nares fromAscham, “up the steep side;” of.Brit. Bibl. i. 132, same as brandly?—­“Andthane thay com tille wonder heghe mountaynes, and itsemed as the toppes had towched the firmament; andthir mountaynes were als brant upri3*te asthay had bene walles, so that ther was na clymbyngupon thame,” Life of Alexander, MS. Lincoln,fol. 38]; JD [brent, adj. high, straight,upright; " My bak, that sumtyme brent hes bene,Now cruikis lyk are camok tre,” Maitland Poems,p. 193; followed by a discussion extending to morethan 160 lines of small print, which we forbear toquote]; brentest, superl. S2.13. 379 ["And bowed to A3/4e hy3* bonk A3/4er brentesthit were (MS. wern),” Allit. Poems, l. 379;already cited in MAtzner, above].’

The work, in fact, contains a very large collectionof words, in many variant forms, appearing in Englishliterature and in Glossaries between A.D. 1150 andA.D. 1580. The glossaries in S2, S3 (Specimensof English, 1298-1393, and 1394-1579) have furnisheda considerable number of words belonging to the Scottishdialect, which most dictionaries (excepting of coursethat of Jamieson) omit.

The words are so arranged that even the beginner will,in general, easily find what he wants. We haveincluded in one article, together with the Main Word,all the variant spellings of the glossaries, as wellas the etymological information. We have alsogiven in alphabetical order numerous cross-referencesto facilitate the finding of most of the variant forms,and to connect them with the Main Word. In thisway, the arrangement is at once etymological and alphabetical—­adaptedto the needs of the student of the language and ofthe student of the literature.

The meanings of the words are given in modern English,directly after the Main Word. The variant forms,as given in their alphabetical position, are frequentlyalso explained, thus saving (in such cases) the troubleof a cross-reference, if the meaning of the word isalone required.

An attempt is made in most cases to give the etymology,so far at least as to shew the immediate source ofthe Middle-English word. Especial pains havebeen taken with the words of French origin, whichform so large a portion of the vocabulary of the Middle-Englishperiod. In many cases the AF (Anglo-French) formsare cited, from my list of English Words found inAnglo-French, as published for the Philological Societyin 1882.

The student of English who wishes to trace back thehistory of a word still in use can, in general, findthe Middle-English form in Skeat’s EtymologicalDictionary, and will then be able to consult the presentwork in order to obtain further instances of its earlyuse.

The relative share of the authors in the preparationof this work is easily explained. The whole ofit in its present form (with the exception of theletter N) was compiled, prepared, and written out forpress by Mr. Mayhew. The original plan was, however,my own; and I began by writing out the letter N (sinceaugmented) by way of experiment and model. Itwill thus be seen that Mr. Mayhew’s share ofthe work has been incomparably the larger, involvingall that is most laborious. On the other hand,I may claim that much of the labour was mine also,at a much earlier stage, as having originally compiledor revised the glossaries marked S2, S3, C2, C3, W,W2, P, and G, as well as the very full glossarialindexes cited as B, PP, and WA, and the dictionarycited as SkD. The important glossary marked Swas, however, originally the work of Dr. Morris (sincere-written by Mr. Mayhew), and may, in a sense, besaid to be the back-bone of the whole, from its supplyinga very large number of the most curious and importantearly forms.

The material used has been carefully revised by bothauthors, so that they must be held to be jointly responsiblefor the final form in which the whole is now offeredto the public.

NOTE ON THE PHONOLOGY OF MIDDLE-ENGLISH.

One great difficulty in finding a Middle-English wordin this, or any other, Dictionary is due to the frequentvariation of the symbols denoting the vowel-sounds.Throughout the whole of the period to which the workrelates the symbols i and y, in particular,are constantly interchanged, whether they stand alone,or form parts of diphthongs. Consequently, wordswhich are spelt with one of these symbols in a giventext must frequently be looked for as if spelt withthe other; i.e. the pairs of symbols iand y, ai and ay, eA andey, oA and oy, uA anduy, must be looked upon as likely to be usedindifferently, one for the other. For furtherinformation, the student should consult the remarksupon Phonology in the Specimens of English (1150 to1300), 2nd ed., p. xxv. For those who have nottime or opportunity to do this, a. few brief notesmay perhaps suffice.

The following symbols are frequently confused, orare employed as equivalent to each other because theyresult from the same sound in the Oldest English orin Anglo-French:—­

/* i,y;—­ai, ay;—­ei,ey;—­oi, oy;—­ui,uy.

a, o;—­a, A|, e, ea;—­e,eo, ie;—­o, u, ou; —­(alloriginally short).

a, A|, ea, e, ee;—­e, ee, eo,ie;—­o, oo, oa;—­ u,ou, ui;—­(all long). */

These are the most usual interchanges of symbols,and will commonly suffice for practical purposes,in cases where the cross-references fail. Ifthe word be not found after such substitutions havebeen allowed for, it may be taken for granted thatthe Dictionary does not contain it. As a fact,the Dictionary only contains a considerable numberof such words as are most common, or (for some specialreason) deserve notice; and it is at once concededthat it is but a small hand-book, which does not pretendto exhibit in all its fulness the extraordinarilycopious vocabulary of our language at an importantperiod of its history. The student wishing forcomplete information will find (in course of time)that the New English Dictionary which is being broughtout by the Clarendon Press will contain all words foundin our literature since the year 1100.

Of course variations in the vowel-sounds are alsointroduced, in the case of strong verbs, by the usual‘gradation’ due to their method of conjugation.To meet this difficulty in some measure, numerous (butnot exhaustive) cross-references have been introduced,as when, e.g. ‘Bar, bare’is given, with a cross-reference to Beren.Further help in this respect is to be had from the

table of 183 strong verbs given at pp. lxix-lxxxiof the Preface to Part I of the Specimens of English(2nd edition); see, in particular, the alphabeticalindex to the same, at pp. lxxxi, lxxxii. The samePreface further contains some account of the threeprincipal Middle-English dialects (p. xl), and Outlinesof the Grammar (p. xlv). It also explains themeaning of the symbols A3/4, A deg. (both used forth), 3* (used for y initially, ghmedially, and gh or z finally), withother necessary information.

SYMBOLS.

In the etymological part three stops are used as symbolsin connexion with the cognate forms cited, namelythe comma, the semi-colon, and the colon. Thecomma is used to connect various spellings of a word,as well as parallel forms cited from nearly connectedlanguages; for instance, s.v. daunger, theOF. forms are so connected. The semi-colon betweentwo forms denotes that the two forms are phoneticallyequivalent, and that the preceding one is directlyderived from, and is historically connected with theone following this symbol; for instance, s.v. bugle,the OF. bugle is the phonetic equivalent ofthe Lat. buculum, and is immediately derivedtherefrom. The colon between two forms denotesthat the two forms are phonetically equivalent, andthat the form following this symbol is an earlier,more primitive form than the one preceding, withoutan immediate interborrowing between the languages beingasserted; for instance, s.v. demen, the Goth,dA cubedmjan is an older form than the AS.dA(C)man, but dA(C)man is not borrowedfrom the Gothic. The abbreviation ‘cp.’introduces other cognate forms, and has the same valueas the symbol + in Skeat’s Dictionaries.

The asterisk * at the beginning of a word denotesa theoretical form, assumed (upon scientific principles)to have formerly existed. The sign = is to beread ‘a translation of.’ ‘(n)’after Prompt., Cath. and other authorities refersto foot-notes or other notes citing the form in question.
