Book excerpt: In order to find an etymological explanation of an Old Saxon form, one must laboriously explore the contents of numerous etymological dictionaries of Modern German or of other Germanic languages though not infrequently such exploration will yield no intimation of a form's ancestral past. The purpose of this glossary of Old Saxon in a single work is an attempt to alleviate the existing plight of both student and scholar.
