Notes: Words from Welsh:
eldnaff → “eldest” [hynaf bleeding through from Welsh].
engaf → 'youngest" [Welsh]
eglwys eff → his church [Welsh].
bys r’gt → index finger, point [Welsh].
Note: p[ortion] of iij or iiij d to jonlyn hokynsson, is an allowence,
in addition to whatever she has from any dowry of 3 or 4 pence per week, a good sum for spending money.
Note: From Websters Unabridged. Google had mo idea.
mote - may or might, something small. mot - a word, or to remark, brief strain on a bugle and
I have heard it used as I want, but with the meanings above applying to the want,
so I have a small wish that, or maybe I hope.
