You are correct that it ends in "reth."
"Crooked" refers to making the word crooked. You just need to find an alternative word for "cross" and make it so.
Huge clue: think very old-fashioned word for cross, appearing in one of Hamlet's ranting speeches to his mother, and in Old English dream poetry ....
