     Truly, the morning of our cognizance is our childhood, our boyhood is like the underntide, when our youth rises, just as the sun does around the third hour; our complete growth is like midday, since in the middle of the day the sun rises to the highest point in its course, just as our complete growth is flourishing in full strength. The noontide is our age, for at noontide the sun starts to go down, as the aging man's strength is waning. The eleventh hour is worn-out old age, approaching death, like the sun approaches its setting at the end of the day.

2. knowledge, cognizance, perception
3. sense, meaning
   • c. 992, Ælfric, "Midlent Sunday"

     On ōðre wīsan wē sċēawiaþ mētinge and on ōðre wīsan stafas. Ne gǣþ nā māre tō mētinge būtan þæt þū hit ġesēo and herie. Nis nā ġenōg þæt þū stafas sċēawiġe būtan þū hīe ēac rǣde and þæt andġiet understande.

     We look at pictures in one way and letters in another. You don't do anything with a painting except see it and praise it. Looking at letters is not enough unless you also read them and understand the meaning.

4. one of the five senses
5. plan, purpose

使用する際の注意点

• In King Alfred's Early West Saxon, the word for a sense as in "a means of perception" is ġewitt and the five senses are ġesihþ (“sight”), ġehīernes (“hearing”), stenċ (“smell”), swæcc (“taste”), and hrīning (“touch”). Ælfric, writing in Late West Saxon, gives the word for a sense as andġiet and the five senses as ġesihþ, hlyst, swæcc, stenċ, and hrepung.
