Scanned Pages From The 1830 Book by W. Taylor, of Norwich

In this book, W. Taylor presents a very interesting, 14-page summary and commentary on the Beowulf story. He complains that the manuscript has obviously been assembled in the wrong order, and mixes up many parts of the story. It is very interesting to read his comments, and compare them to how we understand the story today. If you are interested in knowing something about how our understanding of this story has changed over the past 200 years, then read each of these pages 78-91 -- you will not be disappointed.
