Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Journal of English and Germanic Philology, Vol. 3 The purpose of the present paper is to suggest reasons for thinking that the second piece, like the third, is not a riddle but part of a poem which is continued in what fol lows in the ms., and that the copyist probably supposed that the same was the case with the first one also. The ms. Here as in other places gives us no help and the arrangement of these four pieces of Thorpe must be based on a study of the subject matter.
