The Corpus Glossary

Originally published in 1921, this book contains the text of the eighth-century Corpus Glossary, one of the oldest extant texts in English, and one of the longest in the Mercian dialect. Lindsay provides critical comparisons with other surviving glossaries at the bottom of each page and indices in both Latin and Anglo-Saxon. This book will be of value to anyone with an interest in the interaction between Latin and Anglo-Saxon dialects or the history of Latin scholarship in Britain.
