Excerpt from A Hand-Book to the Land-Charters, and Other Saxonic Documents Upon a consistent plan, the F iret Part should have contained no documents from the Worcester Chatta lary (heming), which forms the basis of Group ii in the Second Part; nor should there have been any from the Rochester Book but in Group iv. The gift of Osric to Bath should not stand where it is (p. 6) any more than that of Headdi to Glastonbury (p. A good general indication of an original document (in the First Part) is the presence of contractions. This is due to the circumstance that many of the best docu ments were printed straight off from the volumes of the British Museum Facsimiles. The student who has handled the Codex Diplomaticus will not find it strange that an abbreviated text should be a token of high quality. Where the documents could be com pared either with the original manuscript or with a facsimile, they have for the most part been printed as they stand and the contractions have been kept. The want of uniformity, whereby contracted and expanded texts are intermixed, will not be without its advant age. The unexpanded documents will afford exercise in reading contractions, for which the expanded texts will supply the key.
