There is no title in the MS.: Rex Suos Judicans is from Anselm’s title. 2. #gelest#, extended; probably the earliest example of the word in this sense. OE. #gelǣstan#, to accomplish, follow, last. With #wide ⁊ side#, spacious, extensive, comp. ‘Ðu leof cyningc leod-scipas ðine wide and side þu hætst,’ Ælf. Lives, i. 496/145; ‘⁊ ta wass Romess kinedom | Full wid ⁊ sid onn eorþe,’ Orm 173. 3. #ærfeðtelle#, difficult to number; comp. ‘earueðhealde,’ 48/311; ‘Earfoðfynde,’ Ælf. Lives, i. 492/82; ‘arueðwinne,’ OEH ii. 49/14. OE. #earfoðe#, #ēaðe#, #unēaðe# are usually followed by the _dat._ of the infinitive, ‘earfoðe is ænegum men to witanne,’ Cura Past. 51/5, to which corresponds, ‘Hit is arfeð to understonden,’ OEH ii. 205/14; but they are also associated with a kind of verbal noun having a _dat._ termination in _e_, in imitation of the Latin supine in _u_, as earfoðlǣre, ēaþlǣre, unēaþlǣce, and the two words come to be treated as a compound adjective. For the _acc._ inf. comp. ‘Ac þe ben swo fele ꝥ hie ben arfeð tellen,’ OEH ii. 201/30. 4. #ꝥ--befell#, lit. that it occurred to him in purpose, that he formed a resolution: comp. ‘Ich wilnie a mine þo{n}ke[;] to walden al Rome,’ L 25091; ‘þat him wes on þonke,’ id. 13258. 5. #nam him to rede#, lit. took to himself for counsel, adopted the plan: comp. 110/298; ‘nam him to ræde,’ Ælf. Lives, i. 64/230; ‘let him to ræde,’ id. 506/319; ‘hwæt him to ræde þuhte,’ id. 244/113; ‘him to ræde fand,’ BH 201/25. See Minot vi, 68 note. For omission of subject after ꝥ, see 6/18 note. 7. #berie# was meant to supersede #curt#, but the scribe forgot to put dots under the latter. He uses berie regularly afterwards. With ꝥ comp. ‘& swa he nom enne dai[;] þat come heore drihtlice folc,’ L 2550. 8. #be þe latst#, at the latest; so 14/69. #to#, at: comp. 14/68; ‘to þan dæie heo comen,’ L 13187. 9. #mistlice#, variant of mislice (Bülbring § 535). It means, diversely, of different sorts, friends and foes. But note fastlice, 16/114. 10. #derewrlice#, so as to confer honour on him. 11. #formemete#, first meat, breakfast, the ‘morȝemete’ of 16/125; ‘mixtum cibi,’ Ans. With #to lang#, comp. 4/38. 12. #none#, after formemete is probably for nonemete, midday meal, dinner: though #to# might mean _at_, as at l. 8. See 206/323. 13. #stiarne swepen#: ‘strong whips,’ Morris: ‘stiff (strong) whips,’ Specimens: comp. 16/132. But the adj. is rarely applied to a thing: perhaps stearce or smerte would suit better. 14. #besie#, look to, provide for, handle: comp. underfangeð 16/131; ‘Euele thai gonnen him bisen,’ Seuyn Sages, 507 (said of a whipping); bisen, 202/195 is similar, look after. 15. #abide#, _inf._ depends on _he sceolde_ understood from sceolden 12. #clone#, without exception, entirely: comp. ‘Ne dude hit noht þe king ane[;] ah duden we alle clæne,’ L 8825; ‘mare ich habbe ane[;] þane þa oðere al clæne,’ id. 13059, 13264.
