Paperback, [PU: Forgotten Books], Excerpt from The Journal of English and Germanic Philology, Vol. 3 In his edition of the Exeter Codex (1842), Thorpe printed on pp. 470-475 four short pieces, the first three under the heading 'Riddles, ' the fourth with the title 'A Fragment.' Ettmuller in his Scopas and Boceras (1850) reprinted the second and fourth, putting the former among his riddles and giving to Thorpe's 'Fragment' the title 'Vreccan peodnes aerend to his bryde.' Grein in his Bibliothek (1857-8) reprinted the first and second with the other riddles, numbering them 31 and 61, but joined the third and fourth into one, to which he gave a title essentially the same as Ettmuller's, 'Botschalt des Gemahls an seine Frau.' Wulker and Assmann in their revision of Grein make no change, and his arrangement seems to have been accepted by all. The purpose of the present paper is to suggest reasons for thinking that the second piece, like the third, is not a riddle but part of a poem which is continued in what follows in the MS., and that the copyist probably supposed that the same was the case with the first one also. The MS. here as in other places gives us no help and the arrangement of these four pieces of Thorpe must be based on a study of the subject matter. The first piece (9 verses) is without doubt a riddle, as Thorpe supposed. This is shown not only by the character of the thought and by the form, but also by the circumstance, which seems to have escaped Thorpe's notice but was pointed out by Grein, that it is found also in the midst of the first series of riddles in the MS. (p. 412 of Thorpe's edition). The only solutions that I have seen are 'Regenwasser' (Dietrich) and 'Das AEhrenfeld' (Trautmann), both of which, I feel sure, are incorrect.
