[Footnote 19: line 1492. This difficult passage may be clarified by reading _ethryethe = strength, copious power_, in place of the meaningless _ethridda = third_, in the MS., and at the same time making _ūrymme_ the object of _haefde_ (reading _ūrymmas_, if necessary).] [Footnote 20: line 1549. At least one line is missing, in the MS. here. I have healed the breach by altering the case of _waerfaest metod_, in preference to supplying conjectural material.] [Footnote 21: line 1628a. The difficulty here may be obviated, with slight emendation, by letting _Faederne_ modify _yrfestole_, and changing _breether_, as a genitive plural, to _broethra_.] [Footnote 22: ll. 1852b-1853. I follow Dietrich, who seems to me to make the best of this bad business.] [Footnote 23: line 1862b. _Haegstealdra wyn_ refers to Pharaoh, of course.] [Footnote 24: line 1929a. A hemistich is missing here, in the MS., and a verb must be supplied; I adopt Grein's suggestion, _laedde_.] [Footnote 25: line 1956b. The alliteration is defective, unless a word be supplied; but the sense may be preserved, without emendation, by construing _aefter_ with _sped_.] [Footnote 26: line 2047a. Metrically, a hemistich seems to be missing.] [Footnote 27: line 2055a. Metrically, a word or two seem to be missing.] [Footnote 28: line 2148b. Metrically, a hemistich seems to be missing.] [Footnote 29: line 2234b. _Larum_ here seems to be tautological, perhaps a scribal error. It might be taken with _bryde_, in an absolute construction: _after the example_, or _in the manner, of a bride_. The reading _lastum_ is supported by line 2715a.] [Footnote 30: line 2275b. I take _witodes_ here as equivalent to _wyrdes_: cf. Sievers' "OE. Grammar," ed. A.S. Cook, 1903, 269, N. 5.] [Footnote 31: line 2379. Grein remarks that a page is missing here from the MS.] [Footnote 32: line 2400b. I read here _maegn_ for _maeg_;--cf. line 2494b. Or, retaining _maeg_, the line might be translated: "The Father of Light Himself was" etc. Cf. Gen. 18.1, 16.] [Footnote 33: line 2439b. Defective metre and sense, owing to the loss of a hemistich, but the sense is complete. Grein's suggestion, _feoll on foldan_, adds nothing to the following _hnah_.] [Footnote 34: line 2510. A passage is missing here in the MS. Cf. 2568b-2569a; and the XXXVII at 2574, after the XXXV at 2417.] [Footnote 35: lines 2597, 2598, 2601b-2602a. There are several lacunae here, in the MS.] [Footnote 36: line 2628b. Some words are evidently missing here. In the brackets I give the emendation supported by most scholars.] [Footnote 37: line 2695b. I follow most of the editors in taking _hyrde_ as _family_ and _frean_ as an appositive with _faeder_.] [Footnote 38: line 2747b. Whatever the precise form of emendation to be adopted, this is certainly the sense of the word and passage.] [Footnote 39: line 2805. A passage is missing here, in the MS.] [Footnote 40: line 2810b. A hemistich is missing here, metrically.]
