L.12.119KD.12.111 L.12.119: There is evidence in the left margin of a scraped gloss and possibly of a bracket extending from here through the
next line group. Ȝyue mercy for her mysdedes · if men it wole aske

ForR.12.121: R is clearly defective here syntactically; but F's grammar seems equally
elliptical, and one must conclude that both are responding to some confusion in alpha. Once
again, the source of confusion may lie in the fact that this line is enjambed from the
previous one. Cf. R's For and F's completely different &
graunteþ to beta's Ȝyue. At this point C
supports beta, reading To ȝeue. mercy for her
mysdedes if men it wole aske .
