See Murray's Dict., s. v. alange. He cites Wif of Bathes Tale, 1. 433, where one MS. gives elenge, another alenge. The meaning is "protracted, tedious, wearisome." Cp. also Schipman's Tale, 1. 222, and The Cuckow and the Nightingale, iv. 340, st. 2 (ed. Bell). p. 35, 1. 1084. halffyndele, half-part. A.S. weak acc. healfan & dæl.-W. W. S.

Perhaps we may retain the reading of the MS. hostagis. Cp. "To my hostage ye go by nyght." Ipomydon (Weber's Romance), 1. 773. "She said he was welcome to that ostage."-Generydes, 1. 64 If therefore Faunus's property consisted of houses, hostagis might stand, but on the whole it must be admitted that heritagis is more suitable. p. 41, 1. 1288. as who seyd cut. Here as who = as if one. Cf. 1. 3407 p. 46, 1. 1478. p. 48, l. 1536. Add: kyte; in Northern English the form is kite. my hertis swete. Perhaps hertis may be retained : sweet one of my heart.-Sir Lambwell (Percy The usual form is "Myn herte swete." cp. "My harts swete" Folio MS.), vol. i. 149/139. 14 p. 52, 1. 1682.

For nethirless read "nerthiless " or "nertheless": For oute & harowe read "oute and "harowe," i. e. out and harowe are separate exclamations.-W. W. S. p. 63, 1. 2039. We have a very modern instance of place used in this sense: "my Lady Dedlock has been down at what she calls her place in Lincolnshire."-Bleak House, chap. ii. ad init. Place in M.E. also means = "lists": see Knightes Tale, 1. 1541, "winne her in the place," and again 1. 1836. p. 65, 1. 2110. of fyne force. We have the same expression in Troylus and Cryseide (ed.

Littré says fin sometimes merely gives force to the word to which it is attached; see also Genin's note to Pierre Patelin, v. 29, and cp. the modern expressions "fine fun and " a fine frolic." p. 67, 1. 2196. both places. amvre; also amyre, 1. 2806, possibly "ripen" in Cotgrave.-W.

These words are very perplexing; perhaps ymmemorat agrees with Beryn, and the words will mean : Beryn, unmindful of the deceptions previously practised on him, and now inclined to trust another stranger. See Forcellinus, s. v. memoror, memorsum. p. 81, 1. 2661. Grew.

S. p. 106, 1. 3529. ynmagytyff? suspicious. Prof. Earle in his Philology, p. 56, laments the disparagement of many respectable words in the 12th and 13th centuries: among others, he says, that imaginatif acquired the meaning of "suspicious." Cp. also Frankeleynes Tale, p. 500, 1. 2 (ed. Bell). "Nothing list him to be imaginatif, If any wight had spoke, while he was oute, To hire of love."
