  • Comment on (A): ? -, cloak (no botanical term), Mantel (nicht botanisch)

    L 'PALLIUM' cf. the glosses HlOl C 1569[1] (WW 210,19): COLOMATA hacole; HlOl C 146 (WW 197, 40): CALAMUCA hacule. Obviously COLOMATA, CALAMUCA, etc. belong to Gk καλυμαύκιον (cf. →hæþ), therefore we also have to asume the meaing 'garment' in these instances. On the lemmata cf. CGL 4,553,25: PILLEUM CALAMAUCUM and CGL 5,510,26: PILLEUM SACERDOTALIS UESTIS ROTUNDA EX BISSO (cf. Is. 19,21,3). STENA is not clear and occurs between plant names.[2]

Oliphant (n. on C 1569) refers to Cp haetcolae and suggests "Read the gloss hæþcole" without referring to the obviously related gloss C 146 (CALAMUCA hacule). BTC, s.v. hacele, accept Oliphant"s highly implausible emmendation because of the lemma"s meaning. The reinterpretation of hacole (in the oldest glosses the vowel of the first slyllable is -æ-: cf., for example Ep 572 LACERNA haecilae UEL lotha) to haetcole, hæþcole was influenced by the glosses CALOMACHUS haet and an equally reinterpreted CALOMACUS hæþ (cf. s.v.). The latter could be the reason for the location of STENA hæþcole amongst plant names.
