1 slota

m. A bit, morsel :-- Betere ys slota (cf. bite, Kent. Gl. 587) drýge mid blisse ðænne hús full mettum mid sace melior est bucella sicca cum gaudio quam domus plena victimis cum iurgio, Scint. 153, 12. [Lye gives sloca bucella, with a reference to Past. 47, an error probably for Scint. 47. If this were the form the word might be compared with' Ger. schlucken: but Halliwell gives slot a small piece.] slota
