A phrase expressive of denial, common to

The derivations of this phrase suggested by Junius, Tyrwhitt, Thomson, Jamieson, and myself (Gloss. Will. and Werw.) are certainly erroneous, and I have now not the least doubt that the original form was the Saxon for than anes; a conclusion I had formed previous to my noticing the same opinion in a note of Price upon Warton, vol. ii. p. 496.

NORNE, NURNE, to proffer? GK. 1661, 1669, 1823. NORNE, pr. t. allege? 2443. NURNED, p. t. proffered? 1771. The use of this verb seems to be almost peculiar to the author of the poems in MS. Nero A. x. In another passage, I find it thus: An other nayed also, & nurned this cause, "I haf zerned & zat 30kke3 of oxen,

& for my hyzes hem bozt, to bowe haf I mester; To se hem pulle in the plow aproche me byhouez."-f. 57.
