Comment		shrive als transitives Verb (wie in dem Beispiel "It glooms ...") hat eher die Bedeutung "jemanden von den Sünden lossprechen". So etwa als (einzige) Bedeutung in M-W. Collins hat auch die intransitive Bedeutung "beichten". "to die unshriven" ist eigentlich "ohne Sündenvergebung sterben" nicht "ohne Beichte". shrive shrove shriven dürfte die häufigere (und ursprüngliche) Variante sein.

Comment		Thanks for actually providing the evidence, no me, and merry Christmas. (-: I totally agree that the irregular forms are more traditional and should be listed first. The entire verb is probably now only historical or literary, but the principal parts should still be available to users. Etymology buffs will have noted the connection to Shrove Tuesday ... edit ... and to short shrift. related discussion: to give so./sth. short shrift - jmdm./etw. we...
