"Simrock's arrangement of the mediaeval text is the one I have chosen for translation. [... Qualifications follow.] I hope that the plain prose rendering I have attempted may not be unwelcome to those who like a translation to bring them as near as possible to the original." --Prefatory Note, 1st ed., p[vii] (viewed at HathiTrust)
