Now of this account the French will be able to make nothing; the modern Danes and Germans, though from several words they may conjecture at the meaning, yet will they be much to seek in the orderly sense and continued construction thereof, whether the Danes can continue such a series of sense out of their present Language and the old Runick, as to be intelligible unto present and ancient times, some doubt may well be made; and if the present French would attempt a Discourse in words common unto their present Tongue and the old _Romana Rustica_ spoken in Elder times, or in the old Language of the Francks, which came to be in use some successions after _Pharamond_, it might prove a Work of some trouble to effect. It were not impossible to make an Original reduction of many words of no general reception in _England_ but of common use in _Norfolk_, or peculiar to the East Angle Countries; as, _Bawnd_, _Bunny_, _Thurck_, _Enemmis_, _Sammodithee_, _Mawther_, _Kedge_, _Seele_, _Straft_, _Clever_, _Matchly_, _Dere_, _Nicked_, _Stingy_, _Noneare_, _Feft_, _Thepes_, _Gosgood_, _Kamp_, _Sibrit_, _Fangast_, _Sap_, _Cothish_, _Thokish_, _Bide owe_, _Paxwax_: of these and some others of no easie originals, when time will permit, the resolution may be attempted; which to effect, the Danish Language new and more ancient may prove of good advantage: which Nation remained here fifty years upon agreement, and have left many Families in it, and the Language of these parts had surely been more commixed and perplex, if the Fleet of _Hugo de Bones_ had not been cast away, wherein threescore thousand Souldiers out of _Britany_ and _Flanders_ were to be wafted over, and were by King _John's_ appointment to have a settled habitation in the Counties of _Norfolk_ and _Suffolk_. But beside your laudable endeavours in the Saxon, you are not like to repent you of your studies in the other European and Western Languages, for therein are delivered many excellent Historical, Moral and Philosophical Discourses, wherein men merely versed in the learned Languages are often at a loss: but although you are so well accomplished in the French, you will not surely conceive that you are master of all the Languages in _France_, for to omit the Briton, Britonant or old British, yet retained in some part of _Britany_, I shall onely propose this unto your construction. * * * * * _Chavalisco d' aquestes Boemes chems an freitado lou cap cun taules Jargonades, ero necy chi voluiget bouta sin tens embè aquelles.
