Termagaunt, i. 85, 96, _the god of the Saracens_.

The old French Romancers, who had corrupted _Termagant_ into
_Tervagant_, couple it with the name of Mahomet as constantly as
ours; thus in the old _Roman de Blanchardin_,

"Cy guerpison tuit Apolin,
Et Mahomet et _Tervagant_."

Hence La Fontaine, with great humour, in his Tale, intitled _La_
_Fiancée du Roy de Garbe_, says,

"Et reniant Mahom, Jupin, et _Tervagant_,
Avec maint autre Dieu non moins extravagant."

--_Mem. de l'Acad. des Inscript. tom._ 20, 4to. p. 352.

As _Termagant_ is evidently of Anglo-Saxon derivation and can
only be explained from the elements of that language, its being
corrupted by the old French Romancers proves that they borrowed
some things from ours. P.

[In several of the poems Percy used the letter z to represent
the Anglo-Saxon character [gh], but as this is incorrect, and,
moreover, gives rise to a very frequent mispronunciation, the z
has been replaced by y in this edition, and several words have
therefore been left out that occurred in the original glossary.]
