Alexander B Prepared by Hoyt N. Duggan, Department of English, The University of Virginia, Charlottsville, VA 22903. This text has been proofread twice and checked against both Skeat and Magoun's editions, sometimes taking one or the other as seemed reasonable. Emendations are marked with [], and those that involve alliteration are rhythm have the ms reading given with an asterisk following the number. @ for thorn, and $ for yogh. Lines 77-523 were prepared separately and are in upper case with remnants of syntactic coding.

The Wars of Alexander This text differs in some respects from the published edition by Thorlac Turville-Petre and me [EETS SS 10 (1989)]. It lacks punctuation and is without many, if not most, of the emendations made metri causa after it was compiled in 1980. The miscellaneous matter after each line of text is the remainder of my system of grammetrical coding.
