Of course there was some variation in usage between dialects and during the long period when "ye" was dying but not yet dead. They are used correctly in this passage; the author seems to have actually done some research. You can find information about the case of "ye" in its entry in a good dictionary such as the American Heritage Dictionary or Merriam Webster. | |
