King Alfred's West-Saxon Version of Gregory's Pastoral Care: With an English Translation, the Latin Text, Notes, and an Introduction (Classic Reprint) - Hardcover
Excerpt from King Alfred's West-Saxon Version of Gregory's Pastoral Care: With an English Translation, the Latin Text, Notes, and an Introduction
The variety of the handwritings of H. Is remarkable: Alfred's preface is written in one hand, the piece of verse in another, and the handwriting changes again with the table of contents, and so on through the whole ms.
Many Latin glosses are inserted between the lines in the earlier part of the ms. The work seems to have been used as a text-book for the study of Old English in the thirteenth and following centuries.
