XLIV " PRAEFATIO.
Davies qui in lexico quasdani voces ex eo profert , con-
fusione creclo) eum attribuit saeculo duodecimo . Nescio
inde , quae ratio seduxerit viros doctissimos Courson et
Villemarque, ut affirmarent saepius in oj^eribus suis, eum
prae se ferre amium SS2.
In fronte codicis legitur : " Elenchus contentorum
in lioc codice . 1 . Kalendarium . 2 . Vocabularium I.atino-
Cambricum. 3. De situ Brecheniauc , ubi quaedam ve-
teris historiae Cambricae. 4. Vitae Sanctorum Wallen-
sium." Quamvis hic dicitur cambricum ^ocabularium
(ante ejus initium in p. 7" codicis recentior manus ad-
scripsit: Vocahula hritannica), dubium esse non potest,
quin sit vindicandum cornicae dialecto. Id optime jam
demonstravit Lhvydius in praefatione ad Archaeolo-
giam cornu-britannicam editam a Pryce duobus his j)o-
tissimum argumentis , primum quod continet phires vo-

quia etiam insunt voces anglicae transsumtae, quarum
transsumtio fieri potuit nonnisi in Angha , non ahbi,
ut omnino non possit haberi armoricum. Addi potest
tertii argumenti loco congruentia, saepius memorata et
exemphs demonstrata in hoc opere, in ortliographia, quae
interdum tamen est propria , in sonis et formis cum mo-
numento haud dubie cornico sequeiite, in quo item phira
vocabula anghca transsumta leguntur, quae Cambris
omnino aliena manserunt.
VocabuLarium hoc , nusquam antehac plene et recte
tyi)is expressum (sunt omissa et corrujita muUa apud
Pryce et Courson) , ex codice ipso descripsi et ut h^gi-
