Excerpt from The Authorship of the West Saxon Gospels The following remarks about the mss. And the printed edi tions of the anglo-saxon Gospels, down to printed edition no. IX, have been copied from Professor Skeat's Prefaces to the Gospels, Often verbatim; but a verbatim transcript has not always been suitable for use in this brief paper. I have pre ferred to use the term Wes! Saxon Gospels instead of the less definite term anglo-saxon Gospels, when only the West Saxon version has had to be designated. Of course, in quoting the exact title of a printed edition, the substitution has not been made. There have come down to us only the following eight mss. Of the anglo-saxon Gospels. Each of the first six contains the West Saxon version in whole or in part. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
