Acrool, El. 6. _Faintly_. C.

Adave, H. 2. 402. [Probably _beheld_; cannot be explained from K., who has nothing nearer than adawe (O.), _to awaken; awoke_ can hardly be the meaning.]

Adawe, p. 282. 78. _Awake_.

Addawd, H. 2. 110. [_Limply_. Sk. translates _wakened_ from B.'s addawe, _to waken_, which makes no sense. K. has 'adaw, _to awaken_; but it is used by the poet Spencer _to slacken_'; hence the meaning I have given.]

Adente, Æ 396. _Fastened_. C.

Adented, G. 32. _Fastened, annexed_. C.

Aderne, H. 2. 272. See _Derne, Dernie_. [_Sad, cruel_, from K.'s dern (O.), _sad_, &c.]
