[ED: Taschenbuch], [PU: Forgotten Books], Excerpt from Reliquiæ Antiquæ, Vol. 2: Scraps From Ancient Manuscripts, Illustrating Chiefly Early English Literature and the English Language In concluding the present work, the Editors take again the opportunity of thanking both the contributors who have enabled them to enrich the collection with many curious pieces which could not otherwise have been obtained, and the subscribers who have encouraged them to proceed. They feel confident that these two volumes of short miscellaneous documents will be found of use to future philologists, and to all who take an interest in the history of our language and literature. The publication was begun in the consciousness that many of the most valuable materials of this description, illustrations of words, traits of manners, facts of different kinds, lay scattered among those short scraps on the margins and spare leaves of manuscripts which had been neglected, chiefly because there was no previous publication in which they could be conveniently inserted. The present work has not been discontinued on account of dearth of materials, but because it was thought that a large work is often felt by the purchaser as an evil, and that if the design should be taken up again, it will have better success when published as a new series or as a new work. To the list of contributors mentioned in the preface of the first volume, we have to add the names of David Laing, Esq. of Edinburgh, J. Gough Nichols, Esq., Dr. Endlicher of Vienna, and MM. Paulin Paris and D'Avezac of Paris. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
