To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Hallam and Dr. Latham for example, that this was not the case ; that the Anglo-Saxon was gradually losing its synthetic form, and that, apart from the Norman invasion altogether, we should have had a language 52 LECTURE III.
with comparatively little of inflection little either of conjugation or declension. In what, then, would it have differed from actual English 1 It would have differed mainly in the absence of an infusion of about one-fifth of Norman French, which, beyond doubt, we owe to th...e Conquest. But the change did not take place at the Conquest. It is interesting to observe the remarkable purity of the Saxon language even after the Conquest purity I mean not as to its grammatical form, for it was losing this, but purity as to its vocables. In the twelfth, and in the early part of the thirteenth century, you have what is called semi-Saxon with hardly a word of Norman French, that is the language of the people. You have, indeed, three languages and three literatures side by side ; you have the Northern and Southern French of the Court and nobility ; you have the Latin of the learned and ecclesiastical class, and you have the semi-Saxon of the people.
