OE brēmel can also denote other Rubus species and even Rosa canina L., it is a name for thorny shrubs in general (cf. Cockayne 1961,III,315). But in the LB these plants are specifyed by other plant names, for example: (→brēr, →hēop-brēmel, →hind-berge). The passage LB 88/17 adds support to our interpretation because the fact that a leech is to take a young bramble bush that is rooted with both ends is mirrored in Hegi's description of the plant (1906,IV,722): "Die Sprossen der echten Brombeeren [...] sind entweder aufrecht [...], klimmend oder bogig überhängend [...] oder kriechend; in den beiden letzteren Fällen bewurzeln sie sich meist im Herbst an der Spitze."
ERASTI, ERUSTI are probably corrupted forms of L ERUSCUM (= R. fruticosus, cf. André 1956, s.v.). ANGUENS[1] is not clear, the DOE, s.v. offers two explanations: (a) probably for ANGENS, pres.part. of ANGERE 'harass, distress', used here as substantive; (b) corrupt form of ANGUEM, asg. of ANGUIS 'snake', relating to glossed text of VERG. Aen. 2.379. Equally unclear is OE →brēmel-brēr. It probably is no compound but a double gloss: bræmbel, brær; cf. Cp 2084 (T 306) TRIBULI braere. TRIBULUS denotes thorny plants →gorst.
