100 VOCABULARY

II, 235, And no miscrowned man’s head behind . . .

310, O by that sweet dead body abused and slain
And by that child mismothered . . .

un- occurs in the archaic unchild (II, 289), and in
the two rare forms unlove and unknow, both occurring in
one stanza of Herthci:

II, 72, Love or unlove me,

Unknow me or know . . .

Finally we find a kind of elliptical compound with
the prefix up-

III, 337, [we! Upwondering search the music-moulded skies . . .

The verb to-bete (I, 225) with the Old English prefix
to- may also be mentioned.

No suffix-formations have been noted.

Leaving compositions with participles out of the
question, there occur few new compositions with verbs.
We undoubtedly find one in

III, 300, . . . wolves and dogs and birds that plague-strike air.

N. E. D. only gives the participial compound
plague-stricken. — Probably the following formation must also
be considered as one of this class:

IV, 291, . . . next, and evil-eyed of these

Arcadian Atalanta, with twain hounds . . .

The verb evil-eyed, or evil-eye, is unknown to N. E. D.
