assoil

1 Thus in a passage quoted by Mr Todd— "For the assoiling of this difficulty, I lay down these three propositions."

2 Then he assoiled them and blessed them, giving them for penance, to smite their best.

3 The fields are burdened with toil, The seas are sown with the dead, With never a hand of a priest to assoil A soul that in sin hath fled.

4 And so Sir Launcelot penance made, And worked at servile toil; And prayed the Bishop of Canterbury His sins for to assoil.

5 And yet simultaneously he was innocent, assoiled, acquitted.

6 At least our own priests will assoil us for such sins.

7 Naught can assoil of the guilt of     a brother's blood save only death; 'tis thy death must     atone.

8 In sooth that craft of thine   Standeth assoiled of all that here is wrought.

9 Then come on, Sempronio, I pray thee, with me;      And tarry here, mother, awhile, I pray thee;      For where of mistrust ye have me appealed,      Have here my cloak, till your doubt be assoiled.

10 And then he kneeled down on his knee, and prayed the Bishop to shrive him and assoil him.

11 "It may be that it will ease and assoil your souls if you would wish to handle it."

12 “Wilt thou partake of the holy bread and wine, or wilt thou, as the woman hath done, assoil thy soul’s guilt by confession?”

13 Yet thou said'st, “I am assoiled,  35 Sure His wrath turns from me!”

14 Observe the use of the words “shrive” and “assoiled.”

15 He met death like a brave knight, assoiled by the rites of Holy Church, and was laid in his grave with great honour.

16 Then the good man enjoined Sir Launcelot such penance as he might do and to pursue knighthood, and so assoiled him, and prayed Sir Launcelot to abide with him all that day.

17 V. acquit, exculpate, exonerate, clear; absolve, whitewash, assoil†; discharge, release; liberate &c.

18 If seas of holy wells could assoil me, I should be pure enough.

19 Of the ladies with whose encounters with the law I propose to deal several were assoiled of the charges against them.

20 The soul of Simonides lives to us in a single couplet; but that is the very stuff of Eternity, which neither fire will assoil, nor tempest peril, nor the wrath of years impair.
