PREFACE . xiii<br />

In the indexes of stems given at the end of the volume,<br />

a classification is adopted which is intended to facilitate the<br />

historical comprehension of the language, by distinguishing<br />

what belongs respectively to its older and to its later periods<br />

from that which forms a part of it throughout its whole<br />

history.<br />

It may be added that the manuscript left the author's<br />

hands complete in July, 1884; the delay in its appearance<br />

is owing to his distance from (the place of printing and<br />

publication.<br />

I desire to express my obligation to Professor Lanman<br />

for kindly aiding the accuracy of the work by giving the<br />

proof-sheets an additional revision.<br />

New Haven, July, 1885.<br />
