Note 10 — PART I THE LOST CHAPEL
Reading edition
For mediæval use of the masculine form "portus" for "porta" see Lobinell, Hist. Brit., ii. 872. "Ante suum introitum fecit idem novus dux primum juramentum in introitu variere portus illius urbis vocati vulgariter Portus de Morzellos." Also in O.E. (Anglo-Saxon Psalter) "on portum" = "in porta."
