[Linenotes:

7: The MS. reading is #hryre# (nominative), which is
meaningless.

8: For #ûhtna gehwylce#, see note on #cênra gehwylcum#,
p. 140 [[_Beowulf_ 769]].

10: #þe ... him#. See § 75 (4). Cf. _Merchant of Venice_,
II, v, 50-51.

27: For #mine# (MS. #in#), which does not satisfy metrical
requirements, I adopt Kluge's plausible substitution of
#miltse#; #miltse witan# = _to show_ (_know, feel_), _pity_. The
#myne wisse# of _Beowulf_ (l. 169) is metrically admissible.

37: The object of #wât# is #þinceð him on môde#; but the
construction is unusual, inasmuch as both #þæt's# (#þæt#
pronominal before #wât# and #þæt# conjunctional before #þinceð#)
are omitted. See p. 112, ll. 18-19.

41: #þinceð him on môde# (see note on #him ... þîoden#, p. 147
[[_Beowulf_ 2810-11]]). "No more sympathetic picture has
been drawn by an Anglo-Saxon poet than where the wanderer in
exile falls asleep at his oar and dreams again of his dead lord
and the old hall and revelry and joy and gifts,--then wakes to
look once more upon the waste of ocean, snow and hail falling
all around him, and sea-birds dipping in the spray." (Gummere,
_Germanic Origins_, p. 221.)

53-55: #Secga ... cwidegiedda# = _But these comrades of
warriors_ [= those seen in vision] _again swim away_ [= _fade
away_]; _the ghost of these fleeting ones brings not there many
familiar words_; i.e. he sees in dream and vision the old
familiar faces, but no voice is heard: they bring neither
greetings to him nor tidings of themselves.

65: #Wita sceal geþyldig#. Either #bêon# (#wesan#) is here
to be understood after #sceal#, or #sceal# alone means _ought to
be_. Neither construction is to be found in Alfredian prose,
though the omission of a verb of motion after #sculan# is common
in all periods of Old English. See note on #nô ... meahte#,
p. 140 [[_Beowulf_ 755]].

75: #swâ nû#. "The Old English lyrical feeling," says Ten
Brink, citing the lines that immediately follow #swâ nû#, "is
fond of the image of physical destruction"; but I do not think
these lines have a merely figurative import. The reference is to
a period of real devastation, antedating the Danish incursions.
"We might fairly find such a time in that parenthesis of bad
government and of national tumult which filled the years between
the death of Aldfrith in 705 and the renewed peace of
Northumbria under Ceolwulf in the years that followed 729."
(Brooke, _Early Eng. Lit._, p. 355.)

93: #cwôm ... gesetu#. Ettmüller reads #cwômon#; but see
p. 107, note on #wæs ... þâ îgland# [[linenote 107.14-15]]. The
occurrence of #hwæ:r cwôm# three times in the preceding line
tends also to hold #cwôm# in the singular when its plural
subject follows. Note the influence of a somewhat similar
structural parallelism in _seas hides_ of these lines (_Winter's
Tale_, IV, iv, 500-502):

"Not for ... all the _sun sees_ or
The close _earth wombs_ or the profound _seas hides_
In unknown fathoms, will I break my oath."

111: #gesæt ... rûne#, _sat apart to himself in silent
meditation_.

114: #eorl ... gefremman#. Supply #sceal# after #eorl#.]
