Excerpt from On Early English Pronunciation: With Especial Reference to Chaucer Besides, the former mode of putting the question has a tendency towards the assumption that each symbol, or group of symbols, stood only for one sound, or at most for one pair of sounds, one long and one short. Considering that our first vowel is at present the representative of at least four distinct sounds (as in fate, fat, fat/zer, fall), and our second vowel of at least three (as in we, w/zen, were); we must not assume that it was entirely otherwise five or ten centuries ago. Mr. Ellis leans on the broken reed of the maxim that The Orthography shows the sound How untrustworthy the support is - though unhappily we some times have no other - will be abundantly proved further on. But besides trusting far too implicitly to this delusive maxim, Mr. Ellis in conducting his case exhibits singular partiality towards one class of witnesses, while others - by far the most important - he treats with undeserved dis respect: they are not indeed put out of court, but they are by no means allowed full, a patient, and impartial hearing.

Excerpt from On Early English Pronunciation: With Especial Reference to Chaucer It is now nearly four years since I first laid lance in rest to tilt at Mr, Ellis's views - expounded in a work of already 996 closely printed pages 8yo., and still growing - by reading before the Philological Society a paper in opposition to them. How I waited year after year, hoping, in the case of a book which cannot but have an exceedingly limited sale, that the expense would be at least partly borne by the Society of which I have been a member for nearly a quarter of a century, and how the hope has proved to be vain, boots not to tell Suffice to say the delay has enabled me to avail myself of the few and scanty intervals of leisure that relieve an engrossing and harassing profession, to enlarge and to a great extent rewrite the paper, though it still is far from being as complete as I could wish. But I have no time to enlarge yet further, and must therefore console myself with the reflection that at least in some peoples estimation a great book is a great evil, and that an argument, if sound, is often none the worse for being condensed.
