feta

in old writers strong, pret. fat, pl. fátu; in mod. usage weak, fetaði, and so in paper MSS., FaS. iii. 492; fötuðu, BS. i. 291, is undoubtedly an error for fátu:

feta

I. to step, with the notion to find one’s way, of one walking in a fog or darkness,

feta

α. act. with acc.; feta braut, Eb. 208 (in a verse); feta leið (acc.), Grág. ii. 44; feta veg sinn, BS. l. c.; menn fátu trautt leið sína í sumum stöðum, Ann. 1300, cp. BS. i. 804.

β. absol., feta burt ór völundar húsi, to find the way out of a labyrinth, Lil. 91; en svá fjarri ferr at ek feta (subj.) þangat, FaS. ii. 284; blindr ok fat eigi til dyranna, Orkn. 192; var ok svá at hann fat af því heim, Grett. 46 new Ed.; fátu þeir eigi heim, Fb. i. 97; ætlaði at hann mundi feta til síðarr, Landn. 146; ok fátu hvergi, and could not find the way, FaS. iii. 401.
