had time and powerto do so much. Not only has our Society producedits own fine series of Texts; but it has also
given birth to other Societies, whose publications are carrying out its purposein other directions; to other books that
bring its teaching within the reach of every student and boy
in the British Empire, the United States, Germany, and
Press); in 1871Mr Earle's 'Philology of the English Language'; in 1873 Mr Kington Oliphant's ' Sourcesof Standard
English'; in 1871-3 Dr Stratmann's 'Old English Dictionary of the llth,
in
in 1871 Dr
Harrowing of Hell'; Dr Zupitza's ' Altcnglisches Uebungsbuch,' &c. Truly the effect of the Society's work is a thing
for every Englishman to rejoice over. As a ' Leader ' in the
Daily News, of Nov. 20, 1873, on the Director's appeal
for money-help to the Early English Text Society, says,
our Society " has wiped away, as Mr FURNIVALL
proudly
boasts, the old well-deserved reproach of indifference to the
sources of our own language; it has stirred up the study of
English historically; it makes possible a knowledge of the
language ; it makes accessiblethe most valuable documents
of that history ; and it showshow, in the teeth of ignorance,
civil war, and obstacles of all kinds, literature,

FTKNIVALL'S
appealfor help should touch us there. But,
indeed,his Society is doing so great a work for all the English-
Texts to the subscribersto the Original Seriesthan those subscribers had paid for. He was therefore obliged to strive to
make up the deficiency by an Extra Fund, which the Duke of
Manchester was kind enough, with his unfailing good-will
towards the Society, to head, and which was meant to raise
200, but had only brought-in the sum of 90,17s. by the 31st
of December, 1873.
We want
all the money that can possibly be got. And the Committee
trust that every Member will try to give or get a donation in
the 'Duke of Manchester's Commemoration Fund,' in aid of
the Society. Many people who are not Members of the Society might be induced to subscribeto the Fund, if Members
would but explain to their friends and acquaintancesthe pur-

Golding, p. 77, L 16 ; Camden (on Mr Camden's Brltania), p. 93,
95 ; and Leland, p. 95. To me, an Egham man, the ' Gallopinge'
poem on p. 80 is interesting, from its mention of Hounslow Heath,
which I Ve so often driven over, and where my father, riding many
years ago, was accostedone evening by a highwayman, who was
shot a few minutes after, by Lord StowelL
The motive of Francis Thynne in presenting his autograph poems
to his patron, Sir Thomas Egerton, was doubtless, gratitude, both in
its ordinary meaning of ' thankfulness for past benefits', and in its
extraordinary senseof ' a keen senseof future favours'. It is pretty

' Benefitts ', that he expected Egerton to give him something,-hard
cash,no doubt-and that soon, for he adds the reminder,
. . hee gives twice, that quicklie and with speed
bestoweshis guift to serve our present need.-L 47-8.
