For truth and with good deeds, Done is then all that watch-deed. 2460 _wech-dede_, vigils. 2463 And some every year as it happens or comes round. 2465 Do for the dead church-going; _chirche-gong_ = church-going. "Þe gret cyte of Medes suþþe afure he (William) sette, Vor me (one) ne myȝte non _chyrche gong_ wyþ out lyȝte do." —(R. of Gloucester, p. 380.) 2467 And that is instead of the vigils. P. 71. l. 2472 _daiges_ is evidently an error for _laiges_, laws. See l. 2456. 2479 _wis of here[n]_, skilful in arms. 2487 _ouer-pharan_ = _ouer-faren_, pass over _or_ beyond Pharan. 2488 _in biriele don_, put into the tomb. "And whanne Jhesus hadde comen over the water at the cuntre of men of Genazereth, twey men havynge develis runnen to him, goynge out fro _birielis_ (tombs), ful feerse, _or wickid_, so that no man miȝte passe by that way."—(Wicliffe, St. Matt. viii. 28.) 2498 _To beðen meðe_, to supplicate for mercy; _beðen_ may be an error for _beden_, to entreat, _bedden oc_ = _beoden oth_ = to offer oath [of obedience]. P. 72. l. 2505-12 "It shall," quoth he, "be fulfilled What God before hath to our elders sworn; He shall lead you in his hand Hence to that promised land; For God's love I yet entreat you; Perform it (my prayer) then, promise it now That my petition shall not be lost (sight of); With you let my bones be borne. 2510 _Lested_ = _lesteð_, perform. 2514 God bring the soul into bliss. 2516 _egipte-like_, after the custom of the Egyptians. 2521 _to ful in wis_ = _to ful-iwis_, very full (completely), indeed. See l. 109. Orm uses the word _fuliwis_, _ful iwiss_, _fuliȝwiss_, in the sense of certainly, truly. See Gloss. to Orm, s. v. _fuliwis_. 2524 _for lefful soules ned_, for the need of faithful souls. 2528 May God help him kindly (joyfully). For the meaning of _weli_ see Gloss. to Allit. Poems, s. v. _wely_. 2529 And preserve his soul from sorrow and tears. 2532 God grant them in his bliss to have pleasure; _spilen_ signifies to sport, live pleasantly. "Þan was Uortigerne þa king in Cantuarie-buri. Þer he mid his hirede, hæhliche _spilede_ (nobly diverted themselves)." —(Laȝ. ii. 153.) "dâ was _spil_ unde wunne under wîben unde manne. vone benche ze benche hiez man allûteren wîn scenchen: Si _spilten_ unde trunchan unz in iz der slâf binam." —(M.H.G. version of Genesis and Exodus, ed. Deimer.)
