1. to strew

   Þēah þe græf wille golde strēġan brōþor his ġeborenum, byrġan be dēadum, māþmum mislīċum þæt hine mid wille, ne mæġ þǣre sāwle þe biþ synna ful gold tō ġēoce for godes eġsan, þonne hē hit ǣr hȳdeð þenden hē hēr leofað.

   Even if a brother would like to strew gold on grave for his kinsmen, to bury next to the dead with manifold riches that he would like to have with him, gold cannot be a help for this soul, who is full of sins, before the dread of God, after he first hides it while he lives here.
