ÞURHWUNIGENDLÍCE - ÞÚSEND

þurhwunigendlíce; adv. Perseveringly, persistently, continuously :-- Þurhwunigendlíce begýman hit gedafenaþ mód úre perseveranter intendere oportet animum nostrum, Scint. 33, 18.

þurh-wunung, e; f. I. continued dwelling, residence :-- Óþer cyn is muneca, ðæt is wéstensetlan, ðe feor fram mannum gewítaþ ... geefenlæ-acute;cende Élian and Ióhannem, ða þurhwununge on wéstenes innoþe heóldon, R. Ben. 134, 14. II. perseverance, persistence, constancy :-- Be þurhwununge ... Mægen gódes weorces þurhwunung ys de perseverantia ... Virtus boni operis persenerantia est, Scint. 90, 1-14.

þurruc. I. a small ship :-- Þurruc cumba vel caupolus (the word occurs in a list of names for different kinds of ships), Wrt. Voc. i. 56, 30.

In this instance the word seems to mean rather part of a ship than the whole, and in this sense it is used later. It occurs in the Persones Tale: 'Smal dropes of water, that enteren thurgh a litel crevis in the thurrok, and in the botonr of a ship.' Tyrwhitt in explanation quotes the following: 'Ye shall understande that there ys a place in the bottome of a shyppe, wherin ys gathered all the fylthe that cometh into the shyppe, and it is called in some contre of thys londe a thorrocke ... Some calle yt the bulcke of the shyppe.' See also thurrok of a shyppe sentina, Prompt. Parv. 493.
