15. #on his dede . . . on his speche#, by means of act and word: _on_ is more energetic than _in_: comp. ‘herte biðencheð ꝥ hie seggen shal on songe,’ OEH ii. 211/17. But #on oðre stede# is a purely local use. 16. #Discite# &c.: S. Matt. xi. 29. 18. #sanderbodes#, messengers; apparently the word occurs only here, but sandermen is in AS. Chron. 1123 A.D. A combination of #sand#, _gen._ #sande#, message, and #boda#, messenger: r may be due to Scandinavian influence (NED viii. 91), or it is possibly analogous to that in provender, OF. provende, lavender, Anglo-French lavendre, from LL. lavendula. #þiderward#, on the way there; see 91/93 note. 21. #hihten#, adorned; comp. ‘alle þos wennen huihten his wurðshipe,’ OEH ii. 195/32, 71/24. 22. #oðre#: _adj. pl. d._, practically adverbial, besides. 25. #Occurrunt# &c.: Antiphon sung in procession on Palm Sunday, according to Old English and Roman uses: see York Breviary i. 367. 27. #understoden#, received: for the earlier #underfōn# in this sense, comp. 6/37, 11/187, 197, 207. 28. #remden lude stefne#, cried with a loud voice; stefne is dative; comp. ‘and on cleopie agan[;] loudere stemne,’ L, MS. O 20789. 29. #Osanna# &c.: S. Matt. xxi. 9. 31. #Pueri Hebraeorum vestimenta prosternebant# in via, one of the Antiphons sung at the blessing of the palms in the Old English and Roman uses: see York Missal, i. 85, Breviary i. 367. _v. p._ are incorrectly expanded in the text, through a too trustful following of Morris. 35. #heg settle#. OE. #setl#, #stōl# continue in regular use for the official seat of king and dignitary till the middle of the thirteenth century, when they are displaced by F. trone. 37. #fro chirche to chirche#. The Palm Sunday procession at Mattins issued from the west door of the church, visited the stations in the churchyard and re-entered the church by the same door. In so doing it was mystically said to leave Bethphage and return to Jerusalem. The scribe has misplaced #⁊ eft agen#; it should come before #to chirche#. #⁊ bitocneð# parataxis; see 81/82. 40. #domus bucce#: ‘Bethphage autem domus buccae . . . dicitur . . . quia multos ante passionem suam docendo [Saluator] donis piae confessionis & obedientiae spiritalis impleuit,’ Beda, Op. vii. 183; ‘Venit Bethphage quod dicitur domus maxillae, dum adveniente morte salvandus quisque peccata sua aperit in confessione,’ Godefridi Homiliae in Migne, P. L. clxxiv. 22: Hildebert, id. clxxi. 500; ‘Betfage, se tun, getacnaþ þa halgan cyricean on þære biþ sungen ꝥ halige geryne, ⁊ men þær heora synna andettaþ, ⁊ him þaer forgifnesse biddaþ,’ BH 77/14. 45. #þet . . . inne#, in which: see 1/3. #noten#, employ (with advantage) the functions of their mouths: comp. ‘here wiken hem binimeð · þe hie ar noteden,’ OEH ii. 183/1: it takes an _acc._ here and at 87/165, but ‘noten of,’ 191/488: OE. #notian# often governs _gen._ of the thing enjoyed.
