also Chr. 1206–7:
dolg scēawian,
wunde ond wīte.
Another such Cynewulfian word is þurhdrīfan. El. 707 has:
þēah ic ǣr mid dysige þurhdrifen wǣre;
and Chr. 1109:
swā him mid næglum þurhdrifan nrðhycgende.
With these compare Rood 46:
Þurhdrifan hī mē mid deorcan næglum[1].
b. Certain kennings are common to the Rood and the Cynewulfian poems. Thus (I add in brackets references omitted by Dietrich):
sigebēam, Rood 13, [127]: El. [420], 445, 665, 847, 861, 965, [1028].
wuldres trēow, Rood 14: El. [89], 828, 867, 1252.
wuldres beam, Rood 97: El. 217 (wuldres wynbēam, El. 844).
bēacna sēlest, Rood 118; wudu sēlesta, Rood 27: sēlest sigebēacna, El. 975; sēlest sigebēama, El. 1028.
feorgbold, Rood 73: selegescot, hūs, Chr. 1480, 1481.
hæfde his gāst onsended, Rood 49: his gast onsende, El. 480.
c. Other parallels are:
(1) Rood 4:
Þūhte mē þæt ic [ne] gesāwe syllicre trēow.
- ↑ It should be observed that dolg also occurs, Rid. 613, 574; dolgben, An. 1399; dolgslege, An. 1177, 1216; dolhwund, Jud. 107; syndolh, Bēow. 817; dolgian, Rid. 6011; and gedolgian, Rid. 546. All of these, except the Judith and Beowulf, would be regarded by Dietrich as strengthening his case. Ðurhdrīfan also occurs : Sat. 163; An. 1399.
