NONWARS
The texts are derived from--not always as the editors have
them--from the following editions of fourteen alliterative
poems.
3 = yogh
7 = thorn or (in A only and then not often, eth)
T1 in the right margin indicates that the text was emended by
editors for reasons other than meter.
T2 means the text was emended by me with support from another
manuscript.
T3 means the text was emended by my conjecture on grounds of
meter or syntax.
Some miscellaneous numbers in the right margin are
meaningless remains of a system of coding each verse by
syntactic/metric type.
