Part 5 (2/2)
Some emendations have been made in the text by inserting letters and words within square brackets. A few more may be noticed here.
p. 2, l. 47. The MS. has _red_; but it should be _rede_.
p. 3, l. 66. For the MS. reading _here_ Mr Garnett proposed to read _othere_, which is clearly right.
p. 3, l. 74. For _his soule_ (as in the MS.) we should probably read _of his soule_.
p. 3, l. 79. For _wo diden_ (as in the MS.) we should read _wo so dide_.
p. 6, l. 177. _Read_-- ”Bi [ihesu] crist,” &c, to fill up; but this is doubtful; see l. 1112.
p. 18, l. 560. For _with_, Mr Garnett proposed to read _wilt_.
p. 20, l. 640. For _ney_ (as in MS.) read _neye_, the adverbial form.
p. 21, l. 660. Perhaps there should be a comma after _Slep_, making the sense to be _sleep, son_, not _sleep soon_.
p. 23, l. 746. For _alle_, Mr Garnett proposed to read _shalle_.
p. 24, l. 784. Perhaps we should, however, read _se-weren_, and the note on the line (p. 93) may be wrong. See _Weren_ in the Glossary.
p. 32, l. 1037. For _stareden_ we should perhaps read _stradden_; see the Glossary.
p. 33, l. 1080. For _hexte_ we should rather read _hexte_ [_man_]; cf.
l. 199.
p. 38, l. 1233. Mr Garnett suggested that _cloen_ may mean _clothes_.
If so, dele the comma after it.
p. 43, l. 1420. For _wolde_ we should rather read [_he_] _wolde_.
p. 46, l. 1687. _arned_ is an error of the scribe for _oled_; see the Glossary.
p. 47, l. 1720. Perhaps we should rather read--_is womman_ [_non_].
p. 47, l. 1733. _Bidde_ must mean _offer_, rather than _bid_ (as in the Glossary); unless it be miswritten for _bide_ = tarry.
p. 47, l. 1736. The MS. reading _deled_ should be _deyled_; cf. l. 2099.
p. 76, l. 2670. The MS. reading _blinne_ should clearly be _blunne_.
A few other suggestions of emendations will be found in the Glossarial Index. See the words _Arwe_, _Bire_, _Felde_, _Sor_, _Tauhte_, _enne_, _Thit_, _Werewed_, _Wreken_, &c. See also the suggestions in the preface, pp. x.x.xix, xli, xlvi, xlvii. [-- 27: Grammatical Forms; -- 28: Metre]
p. 132, s.v. _Loken_. The reference to the Ancren Riwle is to MS. t.i.tus D 18, fol. 17; cf. the edition by Morton (Camd. Soc. 1853), p. 56.
In the Glossary, _Dunten_ is wrongly placed after _Dint_.
