Dedication
*
"The Worm Ouroboros", by E. R. Eddison, [1922],
To W. G. E. \"and to my friends" K. H. "and" G. C. L. M. \"I dedicate this book "
It is neither allegory nor fable but a Story to be read for its own sake.
The proper names I have tried to spell simply. The "e" in Carc is long, like that in Phryne, the "o" in Krothering short and the accent on that syllable: Corund is accented on the first syllable, Prezmyra on the second, Brandoch Daha on the first and fourth, Gorice on the last syllable, rhyming with thrice: Corinius rhymes with Flaminius, Galing with sailing, La Fireez with desire ease: "ch" is always guttural, as in loch.
