XIV INTRODUCTION. 4. * The New Forest ; its History and its Scenery. By J. R Wise. 4to., pp. viii. and 336. London. Smith, Elder, and Co., 1871. There is a Glossary of words used in the New Forest at pp. 279 — 288 ; and other provincial words occur in the text. The publishers have kindly given leave to the £. D. S. to reprint these in the^ Glossary of Hampshire Words whioh is being prepared for th»^ Society by .the Eev. W. W. Skeat.^ 5. A List of Hampshire words was printed at pp. 37, 38 of voL iv. of Warner's Collections for Hampshire. 6 vols, 4 to. London. 1795. These are simply collected and copied from Grose's Provincial Olossary. A List of Hampshire Words was also pi*inted at p. 481 of Wheeler's Hampshire Magazine for 1828. After considerable trouble, it was discovered to be the very same list. At p. 137 of the same Magazine is a Dialogue between a lawyer and his client. The client's talk is perhaps intended to represent the Hampshire dialect; but it is short and not remarkable.
