De briefwisseling van Guido Gezelle.

De tekst werd diplomatisch getranscribeerd, en aangevuld met een editoriale laag.

De oorspronkelijke tekst werd ongewijzigd getranscribeerd; alleen typografische regeleindes en afbrekingstekens, en niet-betekenisvolle witruimte werden genormaliseerd.

Auteursingrepen in de tekst (toevoegingen, schrappingen), en latere redactie-ingrepen (schrappingen, toevoegingen, taalkundige notities) door de lezer werden overgenomen en expliciet gemarkeerd.

Voor een aantal tekstfenomenen werden naast de oorspronkelijke vorm ook editeursingrepen opgenomen in de transcriptie: oplossingen voor niet-gangbare afkortingen en correcties voor manifeste fouten. Daarnaast bevat de transcriptie editeursingrepen ter verbetering van de leesbaarheid (toevoegingen, reconstructies) of ter motivering van transcriptie-beslissingen (aanduiding van onzekere lezingen, weglating van onleesbare tekst). Alle editeursingrepen worden expliciet gemarkeerd.

    , Brook Green
    June 25th 1861 My dear Father and Friend

    The time is now come for me to write to my beloved Edmund so I shall take the opportunity and enclose you a few lines. I was so delighted to receive your dear letter, I need no apologys, for your silence, I felt quite sure you would have written to me long since, only that your time was so taken up with your various duties - Oh! Father though I have never seen you, I could never not look upon you as a stranger, what a true Father you have ever been to my precious Child. I am drawn to you by a link of deep and lasting gratitude how grace has worked in my Edmund since you met him for the first time at Ostend

    Toen Edmund toekwam met de boot.

    Oh! the ways of Almighty God are most wonderful, never did I think the Church would be his state of life, my Father if it were possible to weary God by prayer how often I should have done so by my continued prayer for my Child, and now what do I desireonly to see the day when my Edmund will say his first Mass, and give me the Holy Communion, and then all my desires will be realized in all things may the will of Almighty God be done —

    My Edmund is becoming a help to me in my troubles, they have been severe, the last trial I have felt deeply, on his account, money to me is nothing but when I know it would benefit my Child Oh! it is everything, my Pride has suffered much in this last matter, so you see dear Father, I could not be made in the least Humble without suffering and causeing

    Sic: causing.

    my Child to suffer, and now my constant cry is Give me Humility dear Jesus Give me Humility, You pray that I may become humble. Remember me particularly on Monday the 1st of July when you say Mass Edmund will tell you why, I can say I never go to Holy Communion but that I do not pray for you in my thanksgiving. I have read Father Fabers presentation of Jesusin the Temple in the Foot of the Cross

    Het werk vormde een deel van een reeks werken over het lijden van de Heer, maar werd nooit afgewerkt. (A. Deprez; e.a., De Briefwisseling van Guido Gezelle met de Engelsen. Gent: Koninklijke Academie voor Taal- en Letterkunde, 1991, dl.III, p.108).

    , Oh! my Father I will do my best to resemble my sweet Mother

    Onze-Lieve-Vrouw (aan de voet van het Kruis).

    , and offer my precious son to God and Holy Church for ever, Take him my God you gave him to me, & to you I return him —

    A few more words and I must finish this, I am glad your College is getting into shape I am sure our dear Lord & His sweet Mother will safely carry you through all difficult y ie s I am so delighted you remain at one time I was in fear I hope you will see my Edmund finish —

    Mr & Mrs Pagliano desire to be kindly remembered to you, poor Mr Pagliano has felt deeply the sudden death of two nephews by the upsetting of a boat at Sudbury loch

    Gaat over de vaart op de river Stour in Sudbury.

    Edmund will give you the the particulars --

    Often bless & pray for me my dear Father, I do accept your best wishes & blessing &c — and believe me to remain your grateful affectionate & sincere Child in Jesus Christ — Fanny George
