C. 31; Th. 1. 455, 17-25. In Magna Carta, § 25, trethingii (pl.) occurs. The Anglicized form of the word probably began with þ, and Halliwell gives Thirdings as the term used of the Ridings.

tremian, tremman to confirm, tremman to step, v. trymman, wið-tremman.

trendan (?) to turn, , roll. v. sin-trendet. de teres, but perhaps sin-tredende should be read, see tredan = terere. [Let hym rollen and trenden with inne hym self the lyht of his inward syhte in se revolvat intimi lucem visus, Chauc. Boet. 100, 2835. Chaucer also uses bi-trenden, and un-trenden occurs elsewhere.
