PREFACE.
(By Professor Skeat.)
The present work is intended to meet, in some measure, the require-
ments of those who wish to make some study of Middle-English, and
who find a difficulty in obtaining such assistance as will enable them to
find out the meanings and etymologies of the words most essential to
their purpose.
The best Middle-English Dictionary, that by Dr. Matzner of Berlin,
has only reached the end of the letter H; and it is probable that
it will not be completed for many years. The only Middle-English
Dictionary that has been carried on to the end of the alphabet is that
by the late Dr. Stratmann, of Krefeld. This is a valuable work, and is
indispensable for the more advanced student. However, the present
work will still supply a deficiency, as it differs from Stratmann's
Dictionary in many particulars. We have chosen as our Main Words,
where possible, the most typical of the forms or spellings of the period
of Chaucer and Piers Plowman ; in Stratmann, on the other hand, the
form chosen as Main Word is generally the oldest form in which it appears,
frequently one of the twelfth century. Moreover, with regard to autho-
rities, we refer in the case of the great majority of our forms to a few,
cheap, easily accessible works, whereas Stratmann's authorities are mainly
the numerous and expensive publications of the Early English Text
Society. Lastly, we have paid special attention to the French element
in Middle-English, whereas Stratmann is somewhat deficient in respect of
words of French origin l . The book which has generally been found of
most assistance to the learner is probably HalliweU's Dictionary of
Archaic and Provincial Words ; but this is not specially confined to the
Middle-English period, and the plan of it differs in several respects
from that of the present work.
The scope of this volume will be best understood by an explanation of
1 A new and thoroughly revised edition of Stratmann' s Dictionary is being prepared
by Mr. Henry Bradley, for the Delegates of the Clarendon Press.
vi PREFACE.
the circumstances that gave rise to it. Some useful and comparatively
inexpensive volumes illustrative of the Middle-English period have been
issued by the Clarendon Press; all of which are furnished with glossaries,
explaining all the important words, with exact references to the passages
wherein the words occur. In particular, the three useful hand-books
containing Specimens of English (from 1150 down to 1580) together
supply no less than sixty-seven characteristic extracts from the most
important literary monuments of this period ; and the three glossaries to
these books together fill more than 370 pages of closely-printed type in
double columns. The idea suggested itself that it would be highly
desirable to bring the very useful information thus already collected
under one alphabet, and this has now been effected. At the same time, a
reference has in every case been carefully given to the particular Glossarial
Index which registers each form here cited, so that it is perfectly easy
for any one who consults our book to refer, not merely to the particular
Index thus noted, but to the references given in that Index; and so,
by means of such references, to find every passage referred to, with its
proper context. Moreover the student only requires, for this purpose, a
small array of the text-books in the Clarendon Press Series, instead of a
more or less complete set of editions of Middle-English texts, the pos-
session of which necessitates a considerable outlay of money. By this
plan, so great a compression of information has been achieved, that a
large number of the articles give a summary such as can be readily
expanded to a considerable length, by the exercise of a very little
trouble; and thus the work is practically as full of material as if it had
been three or four times its present 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, pi., S.— AS. be-hds!
By referring to the respective indexes here cited, such as S (= Glossary
to Specimens of English, Part I) and the like, we easily expand this
article into the following: —
'Bi-heste, sb. promise, S (9. 19); S2 (1 a. 184); C2 (B 37, 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 be explained by grant]);
bihese, S (where it is used as a plural) ; biheest, W (promise, com-
mand, Lk. xxiv. 49, Rom. iv. 13; pi. bineestis, Heb. xi. 13); bihese, S
(pi. behests, promises, 4 d. 55). — AS. bends/
In order to exhibit the full meaning of this— which requires no further
PREFACE. vii
explanation to those who have in hand the books denoted by S, S2, &c. —
it would be necessary to print the article at considerable length, as
follows : —
' Biheste, .r£. promise; "dusi biheste? a foolish promise, (extract from)
Ancren Riwle, 1. 19; "and wel lute wule hulde pe biheste J>at he nom,"
(extract from) Robert of Gloucester, 1. 184; "holdeth your biheste?

Text B, Pass, iii, 1. 126 ; " to vol-vulle (fulfil) J>at byheste? Trevisa (extract
from), lib. vi. cap. 29, 1. 25; "the lond of promyssioun, or of beheste?

Werwolf, 1. 57; ")>e byhest (promise, or grant) of oj?ere menne kyngdom,"

Wycl. Rom. iv. 13 ; " whanne the biheestis weren not takun," Wycl. Heb.
xi. 13 ; " longenge to godes bihese? Old Eng. Homilies, Dominica iv. post
Pascha, 1. 55/
We thus obtain fifteen excellent examples of the use of this word, with
the full context and an exact reference (easily verified) in every case.
And, in the above instance, all the quotations lie within the compass of
the eleven texts in the Clarendon Press Series denoted, respectively, by
S, S2, S3, C, C2, C 3 , W, W2, P, H, and G.
The original design was to make use of these text-books only ; but it
was so easy to extend it by including examples to be obtained from other
Glossaries and Dictionaries, that a considerable selection of interesting
words was added from these, mainly for the sake of illustrating the
words in the Clarendon text-books. These illustrative words can be
fully or partially verified by those who happen to possess all or some of
the works cited, or they can safely be taken on trust, as really occurring
there, any mistake being due 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. 9
Omitting the etymology, the above information is given in two short
lines. Those who possess the ' Specimens of English ' will easily find
the example of the superl. brentest. By consulting Matzner's, Halliwell's,
and Jamieson's Dictionaries, further information can be obtained, and
the full article will appear as follows : —

which we forbear to quote]; brentest, superL S2. 13. 379 ["And bowed

The work, in fact, contains a very large collection of words, in many
variant forms, appearing in English literature and in Glossaries between
a.d. 1 1 50 and a.d. 1580. The glossaries in S2, S3 (Specimens of Eng-
lish, 1 298-1 393, and 1 394-1 579) have furnished a considerable number
of words belonging to the Scottish dialect, which most dictionaries
(excepting of course that of Jamieson) omit.
The words are so arranged that even the beginner will, in general,
easily find what he wants. We have included in one article, together
with the Main Word, all the variant spellings of the glossaries, as well as
the etymological information. We have also given in alphabetical order
numerous cross-references to facilitate the finding of most of the variant
forms, and to connect them with the Main Word. In this way, the
arrangement is at once etymological and alphabetical — adapted to the
needs of the student of the language and of the 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 frequently also explained, thus saving (in such cases) the trouble of a
cross-reference, if the meaning of the word is alone required.
An attempt is made in most cases to give the etymology, so far at
least as to shew the immediate source of the Middle-English word.
Especial pains have been taken with the words of French origin, which
PREFACE. ix
form so large a portion of the vocabulary of the Middle-English period.
In many cases the AF (Anglo-French) forms are cited, from my list of
English Words found in Anglo-French, as published for the Philological
Society in 1882.
The student of English who wishes to trace back the history of a word
still in use can, in general, find the Middle-English form in Skeat's
Etymological Dictionary, and will then be able to consult the present
work in order to obtain further instances of its early use.
The relative share of the authors in the preparation of this work is
easily explained. The whole of it in its present form (with the exception
of the letter N) was compiled, prepared, and written out for press by
Mr. Mayhew. The original plan was, however, my own ; and I began
by writing out the letter N (since augmented) by way of experiment and
model. It will thus be seen that Mr. Mayhew's share of the work has
been incomparably the larger, involving all 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 compiled or revised the glossaries
marked S2, S3, C2, C3, W, W2, P, and G, as well as the very full
glossarial indexes cited as B, PP, and WA, and the dictionary cited as
SkD. The important glossary marked S was, however, originally the
work of Dr. Morris (since re-written by Mr. Mayhew), and may, in a '
sense, be said to be the back-bone of the whole, from its supplying a
very large number of the most curious and important early forms.
The material used has been carefully revised by both authors, so that
they must be held to be jointly responsible for the final form in which
the whole is now offered to the public.
Note on the Phonology of Middle-English.
One great difficulty in finding a Middle-English word in this, or any
other, Dictionary is due to the frequent variation of the symbols denoting
the vowel-sounds. Throughout the whole of the period to which the
work relates the symbols *' andj/, in particular, are constantly interchanged,
whether they stand alone, or form parts of diphthongs. Consequently,
words which are spelt with one of these symbols in a given text must
frequently be looked for as if spelt with the other; i.e. the pairs of symbols
i and y, at and ay, ei and ey, oi and oy, ui and uy, must be looked upon
as likely to be used indifferently, one for the other. For further informa-
tion, the student should consult the remarks upon Phonology in the
Specimens of English (11 50 to 1300), 2nd ed., p. xxv. For those who
x PREFACE.
have not time or opportunity to do this, a few brief notes may perhaps
suffice.
The following symbols are frequently confused, or are employed as
equivalent to each other because they result from the same sound in the
Oldest English or in Anglo-French : —
hy\—*h <*?'—"> W'—oh oy\—ui, uy.
a, o ; — a, ce, e, ea ; — e> eo t ie ; — o, u, ou ; — (all originally short).
a, <z, 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.
^ If the word be not f ound after such substitutions have been allowed for,
rafe it may be taken for granted that the Dictionary does not contain it. As
^tK^m a fe^ the Dictionary only contains a considerable number of such words
u ^ as are most common, or (for some special reason) deserve notice ; and
y \ x it is at once conceded that it is but a small hand-book, which does not
r >uW ; pretend to exhibit in all its fulness the extraordinarily copious vocabu-
vmcd lary of our language at an important period of its history. The student
wishing for complete information will find (in course of time) that the
New English Dictionary which is being brought out by the Clarendon
Press will contain all words found in our literature since the year noo.
Of course variations in the vowel-sounds are also introduced, in the
case of strong verbs, by the usual ' gradation ' due to their method of
conjugation. To meet this difficulty in some measure, numerous (but
not 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-lxxxi of the Preface to Part I of the Specimens of English
(2nd edition) ; see, in particular, the alphabetical index to the same, at
pp. lxxxi, lxxxii. The same Preface further contains some account of
the three principal Middle-English dialects (p. xl), and Outlines of the
Grammar (p. xlv). It also explains the meaning of the symbols )>, S
(both used for /ti), 3 (used forj/ initially, gh medially, and^ or z finally),
with other necessary information.

SYMBOLS.
In the etymological part three stops are used as symbols in connexion with the cog-
nate forms cited, namely the comma, the semi-colon, and the colon. The comma is
used to connect various spellings of a word, as well as parallel forms cited from nearly
connected languages ; for instance, s. v. daunffer, the OF. forms are so connected. The
semi-colon between two forms denotes that the two forms are phonetically equivalent,
and that the preceding one is directly derived from, and is historically connected with
the one following this symbol ; for instance, s. v. Iraffle, the OF. bugle is the phonetic
equivalent of the Lat. buculum, arid is immediately derived therefrom. The colon be-
tween two forms denotes that the two forms are phonetically equivalent, and that the
form following this symbol is an earlier, more primitive form than the one preceding,
without an immediate interborrowing between the languages being asserted ; for in-
stance, s. v. demon, the Goth. dSmjan is an older form than the AS. deman, but
dttnan is not borrowed from the Gothic. The abbreviation ' cp.' introduces other
cognate forms, and has the same value as the symbol + in Skeat's Dictionaries.
The asterisk * at the beginning of a word denotes a theoretical form, assumed (upon
scientific principles) to have formerly existed. The sign— is to be read 'a translation
of.' '(«) ' after Prompt., Cath. and other authorities refers to foot-notes or other notes
citing the form in question.
