In geu | eléngðh | e wórn | it mád || l. [147].
Thus, the n must have been very slightly touched, as is shewn also by the riming of e and en. Examples, ll. [11], [12]; [363], [364], etc.
As to the final -e, it may be observed that it is most frequently pronounced just when it is most essential, viz., when it marks a grammatical inflexion, or an adverbial form, as, e.g.:—
Til ihé | sus béð | on Ró | dè dón || l. [386];
and,
Wél | he ſeí | den and ſwí | ðè wél || l. [1645].
In the second place, it is very liable to be slurred over before a vowel following, as in l. [148]—
In Ré | ke-fíl | le on ſún | der ſhád ||
In Ré | ke-fíl |
