PREFACE 

A FEW words of explanation from the editor may seem called for 
in view of the amount of material, especially under the letters A-G, 
contained in this Supplement. As already mentioned in the Preliminary 
Notice to Parts I and II of the Dictionary and in the Preface to the 
Dictionary itself most of the work under A-F was printed before 
Dr. Bosworth's death ; and much of that under G was mistakenly 
supposed to have been completed for the press. It is not then surprising 
that considering the advance made during the last fifty years in all that 
relates to the study of Old English a revisal of the earlier part of the 
Dictionary should call for large additions or alterations. In the case 
of the material under the letters from G to the end it is hoped that the 
need for an apology is less as is certainly the excuse for one. 

The thanks of the editor are specially due to Dr. Henry Bradley 
for very many and very helpful comments and suggestions : to the late 
Professor A. S. Napier for advance and separate copies of articles 
connected with lexicography : and to Dr. Max Forster of Leipzig for 
help of the same kind. He must also acknowledge his obligations to 
the late Professor Cosijn, at the sale of whose library the Delegates of 
the Clarendon Press purchased copies of the first and second editions 
of Bosworth's Dictionary and of Grein's Sprachschats. In these 
Professor Cosijn had noted passages to illustrate many words ; and 
though the editor had often already made the same note, this was not 
always the case, and he acknowledges an obligation where it is too late 
to offer thanks.

andergilde; adj. = of little value, for which little is paid. Such a force 
for ander- might perhaps be supported by the glosses andran, andarn in 
vanum given in Heyne's Altniederdeutsche Denkmaler. Andergilde 
in the proverb might thus mean at little cost, without effort (?), and the 
proverb be translated : Never let it get so bad with you that you don't 
hope for something better by things righting themselves.
