[3]:

Cont.: wyll ysopon in buteran 7 eædic 7 eolonan 7 beren mela nest wel longe; Grattan and Singer (1961,121) translate: "a ration of barley-meal"; Cockayne reads beren mela mest (Hs. nest) and translates "barley meal, a large quantity". For both cases one would expect gsg. berenes mel(u)wes; but cf. the similar passage: LB: 97/20 do hwon berenmela to against LB 99/4 hwon berenes melwes do on.

[4]:

Cont: berenear bestinge on eare.

[5]:

Leonhardi has god-beren mela; the hyphen has to be erased.

[6]:

Cont: do huon berenmela to; cf. 99/4: hwon berenes melwes do on.
