The Extra-Series Texts for 1904 will be chosen from Lydgate’s _DeGuilleville’s Pilgrimage of the Life of Man_, Part III, edited by Miss Locock; Dr. M. Konrath’s re-edition of _William of Shorcham’s Poems_, Part II; Dr. E. A. Kock’s edition of Lovelich’s _Merlin_ from the unique MS. in Corpus Christi Coll., Cambridge; the _Macro Plays_, edited from Mr. Gurney’s MS. by Dr. Furnivall and A. W. Pollard, M.A.; Prof. Erdmann’s re-edition of Lydgate’s _Siege of Thebes_ (issued also by the Chaucer Society); Miss Rickert’s re-edition of the Romance of _Emare_; Prof. I. Gollanez’s re-edition of two Alliterative Poems, _Winner and Waster_, &c, ab. 1360, lately issued for the Roxburghe Club; Dr. Norman Moore’s re-edition of _The Book of the Foundation of St. Bartholomew’s Hospital, London_, from the unique MS. ab. 1425, which gives an account of the Founder, Rahere, and the miraculous cures wrought at the Hospital; _The Craft of Nombrynge_, with other of the earliest englisht Treatises on Arithmetic, edited by R. Steele, B.A.; and Miss Warren’s two-text edition of _The Dance of Death_ from the Ellesmere and other MSS. These Extra-Series Texts ought to be completed by their Editors: the Second Part of the prose Romance of _Melusine_--Introduction, with ten facsimiles of the best woodblocks of the old foreign black-letter editions, Glossary, &c, by A. K. Donald, B.A. (now in India); and a new edition of the famous Early-English Dictionary (English and Latin), _Promptorium Parvulorum_, from the Winchester MS., ab. 1440 A.D.: in this, the Editor, the Rev. A. L. Mayhew, M.A., will follow and print his MS. not only in its arrangement of nouns first, and verbs second, under every letter of the Alphabet, but also in its giving of the flexions of the words. The Society’s edition will thus be the first modern one that really represents its original, a point on which Mr. Mayhew’s insistence will meet with the sympathy of all our Members.
