272 the present collection is not an extensive one, it was thought they would bear reprinting in full.

Proverbs without a serial number (marked *) have been added since the paper was sent to press.

In some cases it is only possible to give the English version ; the Manx does not appear to have been preserved.

I have to thank Mr. William Quayle, a Manxman who is familiar with the Manx as a spoken language, and also with its grammatical construction, for his kind assistance in revising the Manx and its translation into English.
