PREFACE.

AN edition of the Gospels, as transmitted to us in the leading dialects of ancient England, was designed and partly executed several years ago by one of our accom- plished Anglo-Saxon scholars, John M. Kemble, Esq. M.A. of Trinity College, Cam- bridge. The undertaking was, however, soon suspended for various causes ; and at the time of Mr Kemble's death, in the spring of 1857, the portion of it actually completed did not reach beyond the opening verses of the twenty-fifth chapter of St Matthew. Under these circumstances the Syndics of the University Press, instead of suffering so good a project to fall entirely to the ground, resolved to carry on the printing of the work as far at least as the conclusion of the first Gospel.

Although the labour thus imposed on the new Editor has been comparatively slight, it would have proved less onerous still, if Mr Kemble had left behind him any notes or memoranda to specify the manuscripts he was consulting both in the construction of his text and in his choice of various readings. The uncertainty arising from this cause appeared at firs't sight irremediable ; but the Editor is now enabled to state, that a careful examination of manuscripts at Cambridge, Oxford, and the British Museum, has led to the complete identification of Mr Kemble's authorities.

1. The text of col. 1 is found to be a MS. in Corpus Christi College, Cam- bridge, No. cxl. (See Wanley, Catalog, p. 116.) The various readings marked a at the bottom of this column are derived from a MS. in the Cambridge University Library li, 11. 11 (Wanley, p. 152) ; those marked B from the Bodleian MS. No. 441 (Wanley, p. 64).

2. The text of col. 2 is the Hatton MS., also in the Bodleian. (Wanley, p. 76.) The various readings immediately below it are derived from the Royal MS. 1. a xiv., in the British Museum. (Wanley, p. 181.)

3. The third text, or interlinear Gloss, is from the Linuisfarne Gospels in the

iv PEEFACE.

Cotton MS. Nero, d. iv. (Wanley, p. 250) ; and is here accompanied by a cognate version, known as the Rushworth Gospels, and surviving in the Bodleian Library (Wanley, p. 81).

These different versions of the same Gospel, now printed side by side, are highly interesting to comparative philologers as well as to the critical student of the Sacred Text ; since they present us with a copious stock of trustworthy materials for investigating the peculiar genius of the Anglian or Northumbrian, as distinguished from the Saxon, element in our native language.

With the permission of the Pitt Press Syndicate, I propose to add an Appendix to St Matthew's Gospel, as edited by Kemble and Hardwick. The Appendix will contain a collation of the Latin text of the Rushworth MS. with that of the Lindisfarne MS., together with various Critical Notes and comments upon the Anglo-Saxon and Northumbrian versions of the same Gospel.

The Appendix will be issued in a separate form, for the convenience of readers who already possess the edition. It will be paged from p. 233 onwards.
