Labials.
§27. p.

OE. p remains unchanged: peniȝe 8₄, dropfaȝum 14₁₈, apuldure 20₁, æppel 6₄, upp 6₇.

§ 28. b.

OE. b remains unchanged: bodede 2₄, comb 6₁₇, habbe 6₁₁, nebbe 14₉. The loss of b in cemde 6₁₇ is OE.

§ 29. f and v (u).

1⁰. OE. f remains unchanged: furþur 16₂₀, hafe 2₁₅, næfre 6₂₃, gif 4₈.

2⁰. It is once replaced by u medially before a vowel: leuiende 2²¹.

Dentals.
§ 30. t.

1°. OE. t is generally preserved: tyd 4₁, ȝebrited 14₁₀, butere 24₃.

2⁰. It is dropped in ongyft (for ongyst = ongytest) 22₂₀.

3⁰. OE. tt appears as t in sworetunga 10₁₀, w (l)æten 12₁₉, w (l)ætan 20₈. In ȝesetted 12₄ the tt seems due to the contamination of ȝesett with ȝeseted, both of which are regular in OE.

§ 31. d.

1⁰. OE, d is preserved: wyldeora 2₉, tyd 4₁, ȝyrdels 2₁₉, nædran 8₁₂; þriddan 12₈.

2⁰. It is dropped in anwlitan 6₁₅ 8₁₈ 14₂₀, unhalwenlicre 4₁₁.

3⁰. In ȝesedet 16₁₄ we no doubt have the regular change of d into t in unaccented syllables. It might also, of course, be a pure scribal error for ȝeseted.
