  • Comment on (A): Lens culinaris Medik., lentil, Linse

    Cf. Meritt, note on Prud 152 (SILIQUA hxlx): "Read hulu. After this gloss R., M., and H. enter to LEGUMINE the gloss lent ł faba in which faba is abbreviated fab with a stroke through the upper part of -b, and from this gloss BTS enters lent 'lentils, pulse'." Lent is recorded in the MED (s.v.) therefore we cannot rule out the exixtence of the word for OE.
