[Footnote 27: line 2055a. Metrically, a word or two seem to be missing.]

[Footnote 28: line 2148b. Metrically, a hemistich seems to be missing.]

[Footnote 29: line 2234b. _Larum_ here seems to be tautological, perhaps
a scribal error. It might be taken with _bryde_, in an absolute
construction: _after the example_, or _in the manner, of a bride_. The
reading _lastum_ is supported by line 2715a.]

[Footnote 30: line 2275b. I take _witodes_ here as equivalent to
_wyrdes_: cf. Sievers' "OE. Grammar," ed. A.S. Cook, 1903, 269, N. 5.]

[Footnote 31: line 2379. Grein remarks that a page is missing here from
the MS.]

Or, retaining _mæg_, the line might be translated: "The Father of Light
Himself was" etc. Cf. Gen. 18.1, 16.]

[Footnote 35: lines 2597, 2598, 2601b-2602a. There are several lacunae
here, in the MS.]

[Footnote 36: line 2628b. Some words are evidently missing here. In the
