Adjective

ārǣd

1. determined, resolute, stalwart
   • 10th century, The Wanderer:

     Oft him ānhaga ·  āre gebīdeð,
     Metudes miltse, · þēah þe hē mōdċeariġ
     ġeond lagulāde · longe sċeolde
     hrēran mid hondum · hrīmċealde sǣ,
     wadan wræclāstas. · Wyrd bið ful ārǣd.

     A loner oft waits a grace for himself,
     Creator's mercy, even if he is sorrowful,
     through a sea-way he should for long
     stir the frost-cold sea with hands,
     travel paths of exile. Fate is well stalwart.
