Extract

I beg to send you three inedited Saxon Charters for the Archæologia. I think them valuable, because they put in a clear light, by their juxta-position, the variation in Saxon orthography, between the time of Edward the Confessor and William the Conqueror, shewing that a change was then taking place in the language.
