The Proverbs of Alfred is a book written by Walter W. Skeat, which is a collection of proverbs and sayings attributed to King Alfred the Great of England. The book contains a comprehensive introduction that provides a historical context for the proverbs and explains their significance in Anglo-Saxon culture. The proverbs themselves cover a wide range of topics, including wisdom, morality, and practical advice for daily living. Skeat's edition of the proverbs includes both the original Old English text and a modern English translation, making the book accessible to readers of all levels. The Proverbs of Alfred is a valuable resource for anyone interested in Anglo-Saxon literature, history, or culture, and provides insight into the wisdom and values of one of England's greatest kings.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
