Part 44

+u. s. w.+, i.e. +und so weiter+.

It — however, +Übrigens schadet es nichts+.

both ... and, +sowohl ... als auch+.

Say ‘Bread receives (+erhalten+) often an artificial whiteness through an addition’, etc.

When ‘=by=’ is equivalent to ‘=through=’, it must be rendered by +=durch=+.

Say ‘grows chiefly’, in order to make the construction more concise than it would be by using a p. p., which would have its place at the end of the whole clause, and would thus make the construction too lengthy.

Section 60.

OCCUPATION OF THE ANGLO-SAXONS.

Fishing (S. 40, N. 9) was a principal occupation, owing to the frequent abstinences from flesh-meat, enjoined by (S. 59, N. 13) a superstitious ritual. Eels were taken in immense numbers in the marsh lands of the Eastern counties; salmon in the river Dee; herrings along the shores of Suffolk, Kent, and Sussex, in their annual migration; while larger species, as the whale and grampus, were captured in the open sea. Hunting and falconry were the field-sports of the great. The beasts of the forest or chase, which were protected by fines, and reserved for privileged persons, were the stag, roebuck, hare, and rabbit. The wolf, fox, and boar might be killed by any one with impunity, if (S. 27, N. 7) found without the limits of the chase or forest. The wild duck and heron were the common quarry.—MILNER, HISTORY OF ENGLAND.

Say ‘in consequence of the frequent fasting’.

+an´ordnen.+ See S. 7, N. 3, B.

+Ritus+, m.

‘to take’, here = to catch; numbers = multitudes, +Menge+, f.; marsh lands, +Marschgegenden+.

in = upon.

as = like, +wie+.

+der Schwertfisch+ (Delphinus orca).

+Vergnügungen+.

+reservieren+.

I propose to use the following seven nouns in the plural and without the article, in order to avoid the frequent repetition of the same.

Use the Imperf. of +dürfen+.

by — impunity, +von jedermann ungestraft+.

without = outside, +außerhalb+.

Say ‘the booty of all’.

Section 61.

TENDER, TRUSTY, AND TRUE.

(Extract from a sermon preached to a congregation of children at Chicago.)

When I was in the Sunday-school, and had just begun to read about David, I did not feel sure he ever was a real baby, and had to be fed with a teaspoon; or that he ever was a real little boy that went to school as I did, and played marbles, and had a peg-top, a jack-knife, some slate pencils, ever so many buttons, and a piece of string, all in one pocket; that he ever had to try hard not to cry when he went to school very cold mornings; or that the teacher spoke sharp to him, when the little chap had tried his best to get his lesson, and did not get it very well.

+Zartfühlend, zuverlässig und treu.+
