St. 231
p. 92, l. 2658. up-tyed = so limited by the deed of foundation that they (the churches and abbeys) could not be diverted to any other purpose.—Hall.
p. 92, l. 2661. Cf. Eglamour, l. 1339, Lincoln MS.:
‘In Rome this romance crouned es.’
The Cambridge MS. reads instead:
‘In Rome thys geste cronyculd ys.’
I am inclined to think that crouned is nothing else but a misreading for cronyculd. Afterwards, considered to be correct, it has originated expressions like those we find here.
