482. #o wolde#, in the woodland: comp. 195/620.

484, 485. ‘Adversi coeunt, cum sibi conveniunt.’ The scribe has put

#sampnen# in the place of some less common word; Holthausen proposes

hemen which gives an assonance at any rate: if a verb *menen may be

inferred from mæne, mene, intercourse, it would fit still better.

486. #kolde of kinde#, chaste by nature: comp. 191/495; ‘so kinde cold,’

GE 1999.
