Cont.: Nim wegbradeleaf ar sunne upgange; nym þanne hlaf and sealt and swamm and cnuca hyt eal togadere; L text (Löweneck 1896,12/9f): ITEM PLANTAGINIS FOLIA ANTE SOLIS ORTUM COLLECTA CUM PANE IN POSTEA SALSA INFUSO; swam normally equates L PUSCA (= POSCA "der aus Wasser, Essig, geschlagenen Eiern bestehende Trank des gemeinen Mannes und Soldaten", "die Limonade"; cf. Georges (2007, s.v.), therefore it is possible that the model read POSCEA instead of POSTEA, which would go with L SALSA "gesalzene Brühe" (cf. Gamillscheg 1969, s.v. sauce). With which L word did the glossator confuse POSCA? I cannot find an adj. *POSCEUS which should be related to POSCA.
