atviksorð
and ey ( also æ), [ αἰών; aevum; aivs = eternity, everlasting time: hence are derived the eva, æ, êo, in the sense of law (the law being symbolical of what is everlasting), which word still remains in the ehe = marriage; whence the echt = genuine, ægte, ekta, (Grimm)]:—ever; the phrase, ei ok ei, or ey ok ey, for ever and ever; gott ey gömlum mönnum, gott ey ungum mönnum, 45; öllungis muntu hafa þau ei ok ei, 15, 120; hans ríki stendr ei ok ei, 160; Guðs ei lifanda, 43: the proverbs, ey sér til gyldis gjöf, 146; ey getr kvikr kú, 69; ey lýsir mön af mari, 12; ey bað hon halda, 1. 4; ey var mér týja, 27; lifa ey, 15, 34; er ok ey eða ei þat er aldregi þrýtr, 172; ei at vera, 677. 3; til hins sama var ey at ætla, i. 108.
II. [ ei, ej], not ever, not, properly a contraction from ei-gi, in the spelt é or e̅g̅; ei is often used in writers, but not in speech; it is also used now and then in of old writers, though it is doubtful whether it is there genuine.
2. ey in a negative sense; ey manni, no man, 55; vide eyvit.
