- (29:9) "Its all ways wrote down in the old spel"
Here we're reminded that Riddley's fanciful spelling and grammar are not signs of illiteracy, but are part of a jealously guarded tradition that goes back an extremely long time, long enough for spelling to have shifted even further from our current standard (as we see in the next chapter) and then, for unknown reasons, shifted slightly back again.
