Excerpt from Juliana At very nearly the same time, Cynewulf' s authorship of the Elene was announced by the great German scholar Jacob Grimm.1 Early in 1839 Grimm had with some difficulty Obtained a copy Of Thorpe's Appendix B to Mr. Cooper's Report (i 83 containing the poems of the Ver celli ms. From this he took the text of the Andreas and Elene for his edition (i 8 the preface is dated Oct. 19, TO the Exeter ms. Grimm did not have access consequently he could not know of the runic pas sages in Christ and 7uliana. A fourth passage of the same kind, occupying leaf 54a of the Vercelli ms., had by reason of its illegibility been silently omitted by Blume, the first transcriber, and re mained undiscovered until 1 8 8 8, when it was published by Napier.2 This passage follows the Fates of the Apostles, and has by some been regarded as the conclusion of that poem; it has also, by others, notably Trautmann8 and Skeat,4 been considered as forming, with the Fates of ibe Apostles, an epilogue to the Andreas. For the present, without entering into the question of its relation to these other poems, we may speak Of it as the Fragment.
