Excerpt from Sand Iron Book, Vol. 1: A Romance of About 1400 A. D. Now First Edited From the Unique Ms. (Laud, Misc, 595) In the Bodleian Library, Oxford, With Introduction, Notes, I Glossary The Laud Troy Book, of which I herewith offer the first part, was formerly thought to be a copy of the renowned poem of the monk of Bury; but it is another paraphrase of the Trojan war of about the year 1400. The Bodleian ms. Containing it (laud Misc. 595) is beautifully and distinctly written in one hand of about the beginning of the fifteenth century. No other copy of this poem has been found hitherto, but the Bodleian copy cannot be the original. The romance has lines it gives a descrip tion of the passage of the Argonauts, and of the first as well as of the second expedition of the Greeks against Troy; it is com plete, as the end-lines show, though the return of the Greeks to their country is mentioned in only a few words. This part contains lines 1 the rest of the text is in active pre paration for the press, and will, together with the 'notes, ' fill the second part the third part will contain the Introduction and full Glossary.
