Notes

[1]geh{ƿ}hƿæs] First <ƿ> written over unidentified character (perhaps an <h> or <s>).

[2]or| onsteald| onstealde] Catchword (onsteald|) at foot of f. 146r corresponds with onstealde, f. 146v.

[3]sc\y/pend·] <y> added above the line with caret between <c> and <p>.

[4]moncynnes] Oddly formed <y>. The same form is also found in ƿyrþes, manuscript line 6.
