'For editors of alliterative verse, this book is essential reading'. Susanna Fein, Speculum, lxxxv (2010), pp. 457 - 458. 'A model of meticulousness and sensible argument'. Thomas Bredehoft, Review of English Studies, lx (2009), pp. 802 - 804. The volume provides a comprehensive study of the metre of the unrhymed poems of the Alliterative Revival. It includes detailed analysis and discussion of line endings, alliterative patterning, historical grammar, the relationship between linguistic stress and beat, and presents new discoveries regarding the metrical rules of the a-verse. Readers interested in the metre and textual criticism of alliterative poems, such as Sir Gawain and the Green Knight, The Siege of Jerusalem and the Alexander fragments, will find this monograph 'an outstanding, scholarly, assured and important work' (Ruth Kennedy, Royal Holloway, University of London).

Excerpt from Chapters on Alliterative Verse The dissertation herewith submitted for approval varies very much from my original design, which was to have written a critical review of recent German treatises on the subject of alliterative verse. In January last, whilst engaged upon this task, my attention was drawn to certain unusual metrical points which I had noted in Cod. Junius XI in the summer of 1889 thinking them at the time simple errors on the part of the scribe, but which I now saw to be an invaluable clue to the construction of the half-verse. Following this out, by the aid of Prof. Moller's work on alliterative poetry (Zur ahd. Alliterationspoesie) I was soon led to the conclusion, stated in Chap. I. p. 30, that the half-verse is constructed on the same plan as the whole verse, that as the latter is divided into two sections by a caesura, each of which may begin either with an accented, or an unaccented syllable, so is the former. Unfortunately, my notes were confined to the Exodus and Daniel poems, and it was impossible for me, as I was then stationed at Prague, to consult the MS. further.
