1081. So in Gower's Conf. Amantis, i. 100:--

'But as _an oule_ fleeth by nighte

Out of all other briddes sighte,

Right so this knight, on daies brode,' &c.

This line, for a wonder, is unaltered by Dryden in his paraphrase.

1085. _walweth_, rolls from side to side, turns about restlessly; cf. Leg.

Good Wom. 1166; Troil. i. 699; Rom. Rose, 2562.

1088. _Fareth_, pronounced as _Far'th_; cf. _tak'th_ in 1072.

1090. _dangerous_, distant, unapproachable; see D. 151.

1109. _Gentilesse._ See my notes (in vol. i. 431, 553) on R. R. 2190, and

Gentilesse. Compare Boethius, bk. iii. pr. 6 and met. 6; Roman de la Rose,

ed. Méon, 6603-6616, and 18807-19096; and see B. 2831.
