Excerpt from Extracts From Alfred's Orosius
The present extracts from Alfred's Orosius are taken from my edition in the Early English Text Society series. The text is that of the Lauderdale MS every letter not in that ms. Being enclosed in N. All letters so enclosed are from the Cotton ms., unless the contrary is stated in the notes. The page-references are to my edition.
The Latin original of a portion of the text has been added. Those portions of it which are omitted or para phrased loosely in the English are in italics.
