Chapter VI: Prepositions (8)

P. 101. l. 3545-6 That mad folk there of day brought Hur (_i. e._ put Hur to death) and put Aaron in fear; 'to don of dawe' = to bringen of dage = put to death. (See Legend of St. Beket, l. 622; Allit. Poems, p. 9, l. 282.)

"For quen the childe es born, sal I
_Do it of daw_ sa priuely,
That na wiht sal the squeling here,
And delf it sithen in our herbere."—(Met. Hom. p. 167.)

P. 102. l. 3573 _for gode_ is frequently employed by Chaucer. 3574 It is a song wicked and foolish.

3581-2

And mixed _it_ in _the_ water and poured it off,
And gave that folk that draff (dregs) to drink.

Cf. O.E. _draff_, chaff. "_Draffe_ or drosse, or mater stampyd, pilumen." (Prompt. Parv.) Cf. "_draf-sak_." (Chaucer.)

3583-4

Then wist he well who had done it (committed idolatry),
Seen it (the dregs) was on their beards.

3603 _milche moð_ = _milce mod_, mild (merciful) mood.

3605-6

God answered, "Off shall I take them,
Who are not _worthy_ to be placed thereon."

3607 _min engel on_, my angel alone.

P. 103. l. 3611 _to pligt_, for _their_ sin. 3614 And as sun-beam bright shone his features. 3624 _wið witter dragt_, with skilful device. 3626 And their labour they well apply. 3635 _of lore wal_, of choice lore. 3637 _betten_ = _beten_, amend, from _bet_, better. 3640 Ere they from Sinai forth have passed. 3642 _ðe oðer_, the second.

P. 104. l. 3647 This folk has after pleasure gone. 3653 Moses caused it to cease with his prayer. See note on _blissen_, p. 182. 3658 _for-hirked_ = _for-irked_, tired. 3661 _Loruerd_ = _louerd_, lord. 3664 Thou shalt cause me quickly to suffer death. 3676 And brought a great mint of quails; but _turles_ = _turtles_, doves. See Ayenbite of Inwyt, p. 181.

P. 105. l. 3688 There became Miriam somewhat foolish; _soth_ = _sott_, a fool (see l. 3685). 3710 A bunch of grapes on a long pole; O.E. _cowele_, _cowle_, a coop, tub, etc.; Prov. E. _cowl_; _cuuel-staf_ signifies the staff or pole upon which the people carried their kneading troughs. This interpretation is supported by the form _cowle-tre_ or _soo-tree_. Falanga, vectatorium. (Prompt. Parv.) "Phalanga est hasta, vel quidam baculus ad portandas cupas, Anglice a stang, or a _culstaffe_."—(Ortus.) "_Courge_, a stang, pale-staffe, or _cole-staffe_, carried on the shoulder, and notched for the hanging of a pale at both ends."—(Cotgrave.) In Caxton's Mirrour of the World, c. 10, A.D. 1481, it is related that in Ynde "the clusters of grapes ben so grete and so fulle of muste, that two men ben gretly charged to bere one of them only upon a _cole-staff_." In Hoole's translation of the Orbis sensualium, by Comenius, 1658, is given a representation of the _cole-staff_ (_ærumna_), used for bearing a burden between two persons, p. 135; and again, at p. 113, where it appears as used by brewers to carry to the cellar the new-made beer in "soes," or tubs with two handles (_labra_), called also _cowls_. In Brand's "Popular Antiquities," ii. 107, will be found an account of the local custom of riding the _cowl-staff_ or _stang_ (Way in Prompt. Parv.)

P. 106. l. 3721 _swerdes slagen_, slain of (with) sword. 3723 _loder-man_ = _lodesman_, leader. A leader we will choose (take); _sen_ = _bi-sen_. 3730 If Moses were not opposed there-_to_. 3732 _milche_ = _milce_, mercy, pity. See l. 3728, where the correct form occurs. 3740 Their righteousness was pleasing to God. 3742 _sorwes dere_ = sorrow's hurt.

3745-6

Again (backwards) they made their course,
As that cloud had taught.

P. 107. l. 3755 _migtful_ qualifies _meistres_ in l. 3756. 3760-61 _ilc gure_, each of you. Cf. _quilc gure_, which of you, l. 3764. 3761 _reklefat_, incense vat, the vessel holding the incense, censer. See Orm. i. 2, 35, 58. 3762 _timinge_ seems to be an error for _time ge_, wait ye. 3767 _orgel pride_, arrogant pride. Cf. _orrȝhellmod_, pride (Orm. i. 216). "Ichabbe isehen his ouergart, ant his egede _orhel_ ferliche afallet."—(St. Marh. p. 11.) I have seen his presumption and his arrogance fearfully felled. 3770 Instead of the reading in the text substitute the following: _Moyses, and vt ne wulde gon_; _vr_ seems to be an error for _vt_ = out. See Numbers xvi. 12. 3774 Held up neither stone nor grit. I do not think _ston ne gret_ = _strong ne gret_ = strong nor great.

3777-80

Such destruction they have unexpectedly
No man need labour to bury them
This earth is together closed
As it were never ere broken up.

3786 _fieres swaðe_, flame (burning) of fire.

P. 108. l. 3796 There hath a cloud them well girded. 3802 Ran and stood _between_ the living and the dead; _tiren_ seems, from the way it is written in the MS., to be an error for _tuen_ = _twen_, between. 3807-14 Though this folk, much frightened, remained quiet for a time, nevertheless they are yet in diverse counsels (_i. e._ of conflicting opinions). Moreover, they vacillate in purpose, and think that it may be decided better. Though these burnt (_i. e._ those destroyed by fire) are refused, yet they ween that God shall take of the twelve tribes some more to be in the place of those whom he had despised (rejected). _miðe_ is the pret. subj. of _miðen_ = A.S. _míðan_ (pret. _mád_, pl. _midon_; pret. subj. _mide_), to lie hid, to avoid, omit, hide, dissemble. 3809 _aglen_ = _aylen_ = _ail_, become weak or foolish. 3814 _for-hugede_, despised, rejected.

"Ah Gurmu_n_d hit _for-hoȝede_
And habbe he heo nolde."—(Laȝ. iii. 156.)

"For niss nan mann þatt uss birrþ att
_Forrhoȝhenn_ god to lernenn."—(Orm. ii. 107.)

P. 109. l. 3824. The name of the tribe which _shall_ thereto belong. 3826 Which tribe he desires this service _to be_ on.

3851-2

Here and there (yonder) there they buried lie,
All the old (ones) did there end (i. e. died).

P. 110. l. 3865-6

God bad assemble the folk and go,
And before them smite on the stone.

3880 _costful_, dangerous. See Met. Hom. p. xix, where _far-cost_ = a dangerous voyage. 3884 _wente of liwe_ = turned from life = died. 3887 _in_ = _hin_ = _hine_, him.

P. 111. l. 3924 The sense requires us to read, _for to stillen his vn-eðe mod_, for to quiet his uneasy (disturbed) mind.

P. 112. ll. 3931-2

In the night a message came to him from God,
And a prohibition against this king's counsel.

3941 _me goue hold_ = should give me faithfully; _hold_ = _holde_ = faithfully, truly. 3945 _Oc or or_ = but first ere. 3951 And turned his heart on worse thought. 3958 And beat and turned it to the path; _sti_, path, way. "ðes is forðon ðeðe gecuoeden wæs ðerh esaias ðone witgo cuoeðende: stefn cliopende in woestern gearuas woeg drihtnes, ræhta doeð [wyrcas] _stiga_ his." (Matt. iii. 3. Northumbrian Version.) 3964 _negt_ = _neg_ + _it_ = nigh it.

P. 113. ll. 3972-3

It is as true as it is marvellous.
Said this ass thus with anger.

3976-7

Had I a sword, I would slay thee.
So was this man to mischief (grief) brought.

3985-6

Quoth Balaam, "since I have mis-fared,
If thou wilt, I will turn back."

3988

Against my counsel speak thou nought.

3993-4

Shall I no word be able to forth-do (utter),
Except what God layeth on me.

4000-1 And went apart; why? but because from above, etc.

P. 114. ll. 4009-10

His life is blithe (joyful), so shall be his ending (death),
Who prospereth as this (one) shall prosper.

4015 For _or_ read _and_ (?). 4016 He did it for better success. 4022 _hem_, if not an error for _he_, stands for _he_ + _hem_.

P. 115. l. 4049 "The young women of thy land, fair of sight, and soft of hand, and bright of hue (complexion), of speech glad (joyous), in haste shall I set apart _as_ messengers; do thou send out against these men those who can brew (produce) heart-burning with joy, with features, and with body and sin, pleasantly, with speech small (flattery), to turn them from God's fear to thy land gods and our laws; unless thou canst follow this advice and lead them from God's love, and seek to turn thus their thought, for war nor weapon helpeth not. 4052 _ðgere_ = _gere_ = haste. At first I was inclined to take _ðgere_ for _dere_, so that _wið ðgere_ = for harm. 4053 _ten_ = _te_ (?). Or should we read, _ðe do ten vt_ = cause those to go out. 4056 _Luueke_ may be an error for _luue-like_ = pleasantly; or it may = _luue-leke_ = love; _-lec_ being a not uncommon ending of abstract nouns, as in O.E. _feirlec_, fairness, beauty. 4063 _quad_. The rhyme seems to require _quead_; _ðat ille quad_ = that wickedly spoke (advised); _ðat ille quead_ = that wicked wretch.

P. 116. ll. 4086-88

God bad Moses number
His folk who were first preserved from death
Either twenty winters or more old,
Who in Egypt were not before numbered.

4096 All others were driven in death's web. 4106-8 Leave thou not thy folk helpless, and do thou, O God, cause them to be governed just as it may be advantageous for them.

P. 117. l. 4110 _loder-man_. See note on l. 3723.

4119-22

Whilst to him lasted life-days,
Them he taught precious laws,
And written hath committed them to them,
Unless they them keep, on them shall be sorrow (misfortune shall befall
them).

In line 4121 the first _hem_ should be omitted.

P. 118. l. 4143-4 Idolatry, that was pleasing to them, oft out-wrought (effected) for them sorrow's trouble, i. e. brought sorrow and trouble upon them.

4159-60

In such virtues grant us to come;
Through which we shall be to _everlasting_ life taken.

[396] See "The History of Our Lord," vol. i. p. 53.

[397] The Northumbrian version reads _gedroefed_, from which the O.E. vb.
_drove_.

[398] Written _leasowe_.
