The Oldest English Texts is a book written by Henry Sweet and published in 1885. This book is a collection of some of the earliest known texts written in the English language, dating from the 7th to the 11th century. The texts included in this book are written in Old English, which is the earliest form of the English language. The book contains a detailed introduction that provides historical context and background information on the texts, as well as an analysis of the language and grammar used in the texts. The texts themselves are presented in their original form, with translations provided for readers who are not familiar with Old English. This book is an important resource for scholars and students of linguistics, literature, and history who are interested in the early development of the English language.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
