\ þe Between these two lines, Hand2 has tried
to indicate an insertion point for þe in the previous line where the
scribe had already written þe. Also Hand2 has drawn a tail on the original
character's descender to make its identity more explicit. Apparently, he understood the
scribe's form in line 251 as ye and was attempting to fix
it.
F.8.246KD.11.245Þere neuere segge hym seyȝ / with syghte / lyk þe ryche.F.8.246: The b-verse in Bx reads "in secte of þe riche." F habitually avoids secte, substituting sewte (F10.734), seut (F11.248), or even selue (F5.499). However, note that at 7.223 F alone reads sekt in place of Bx's book.
