Did you mean misspelled

  > As a result of these circumstances, things like spelling practices varied from one place to another, and one scribe to another. The same word could even be written on the same page in multiple ways. I believe we can all still be confident scribes and maybe even have our own preferred way of writing words, where we within reason push the boundaries or push our own viewpoints through self expression :D

  "mispelt" is a somewhat archaic British spelling. "mispelled" is more modern.

    No it isn't. -t instead of -ed in general for many words is dialectal for one thing, more commonly retained (a Saxonism) in the West Country than elsewhere. Misspelled in particular though is distinctly American, everywhere in Britain uses misspelt. (Ironically, I'm not sure if deliberately ironically, you 'mispelt' both, fwiw.)
