Excerpt from The Anglo-Saxon Version of the Book of Psalms Commonly Known as the Paris Psalter: Dissertation Presented to the Board of University Studies of the Johns Hopkins University for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy In conclusion, I have only to return thanks to the scholars with whom I have been brought into relations in the course of this investigation. I should first mention in this connection my former teacher, Dr. James W. Bright, of the Johns Hopkins University, to whom I owe the suggestion of a new study of the Paris Psalter. I should, also, especially expres my gratitude to Prof. T. K. Cheyne, of Oxford, and Prof. Friedrich Baethgen, of Greifswald, for the encouragement 'which they have extended me in the progress of my work. To the latter I owe, in addition, the sub stantial favor of having put me into communication with the Abb Morin of Maredsous, Belgium, my obligations to whose valuable assistance at a turning-point in my investigation I have endeavored to express in a fitting manner elsewhere. To Prof. Cheyne especial acknowledgments are, furthermore, due for the article in The Thinker for June, 1893, pp. 496 fit, in which he has kindly called attention to the first results of my investigation as presented very imperfectly In Modern Language Notes, February, 1893. I have nothing to object to in Prof. Cheyne' s article, except that I do not think that a reader unacquainted with my original article in Modern Language Notes would judge from it that I had, myself, recognized the interpretations of Esegm's as derived from Theodore of Mopsuestia. My appreciation, however, of the author's kindness is in no wise diminished by this unintentional oversight. It only remains for me to return thanks finally to my friend and colleague, Dr. George A. Barton, for having furnished me with English renderings of superscriptions in the Syriac Epitome left untranslated in Prof. Baethgen's articles.
