1. & þær hond should, it seems, be erased.
2. Read ðy, probably.
3. þys, MS.
4. ys had been þys in MS., but corrected by erasure.
5. cume is interlined before eastan, it is better, for the rhythm, omitted.
6. The omission of the South is probably an error of the transcriber.
7. Perhaps we should correct adle.
