TALBOT5295

Michael’s Grove

6 February 1869

My dear Sir,

Many thanks for part 4 of Glossary: I have gone through it rapidly, and shall reconsider again at leisure, when I can get it. If I were twenty years younger I should make a better work, but I feel driven by time. It is ten to one against me that I should complete one half of my task, and I do not think any body will take up my very illegible MSS after me. – I would add angulus to your list of words in No 238, perhaps also the Scottish ingle "chimney corner," which I have supposed to be ignis. I find sutta dream in my MS. but I did not think of <illeg> <hebrew> I have got marusta "vehement" עדפ. you find the ego <ill. del.> mavulta in the mor<illeg> l 92.

I have read malmalis powerfully in Botta 192.8 = 140 malmalis azur powerfully & strengthened

I must conclude or be too late for post,

Yours faithfully

Edwin Norris

H. F. Talbot Esq
