I take pleasure in expressing my indebtedness to Professor H. R. Lang of Yale University, who not only suggested the present work and gave me much valuable assistance, but also, by his kind interest in securing for me a traveling fellowship, made it possible for me to pursue abroad my studies in Romance Philology; to Professor H. A. Todd of Columbia University, who has given me constant encouragement and assistance in the preparation and publishing of this work; and to Professor E. B. Babcock of New York University, who has offered many useful suggestions. To Professor H. A. Todd and Professor E. B. Babcock I wish also to express my especial thanks for their careful reading of the proof-sheets.
