Synopsis:
Excerpt from The Owl and the Nightingale
Parker New for my obligations to them indicated at the head of the texts. I am very grateful for the kindness of Professor Frederick M. Padelford of the University of Washington, who collated my final copy for the Cot ton text with the Cotton ms.
To Professor 0. F. Emerson of Western Reserve Uni versity and to Professor Richard Jones of Vanderbilt University, I owe especial thanks for their kind concern toward the publication of this edition. To the general editor of the series, Professor Ewald F lugel, I am most deeply obliged for the admission of the poem into the series, for his careful reading of my ms., and for his very helpful suggestions. I would thank him, too, for making for me at the Bodleian and at the British Museum a number of notes concerning the mss.
