The only Middle-English Dictionary +that has been carried on to the end of the alphabet is that by the late +Dr. Stratmann, of Krefeld. This is a valuable work, and is +indispensable for the more advanced student. However, the present work +will still supply a deficiency, as it differs from Stratmann’s +Dictionary in many particulars. We have chosen as our Main Words, where +possible, the most typical of the forms or spellings of the period of +Chaucer and Piers Plowman; in Stratmann, on the other hand, the form +chosen as Main Word is generally the oldest form in which it appears, +frequently one of the twelfth century. Moreover, with regard to +authorities, we refer in the case of the great majority of our forms to +a few, cheap, easily accessible works, whereas Stratmann’s authorities +are mainly the numerous and expensive publications of the Early English +Text Society. Lastly, we have paid special attention to the French +element in Middle-English, whereas Stratmann is somewhat deficient in +respect of words of French origin1. The book which has generally been +found of most assistance to the learner is probably Halliwell’s +Dictionary of Archaic and Provincial Words; but this is not specially +confined to the Middle-English period, and the plan of it differs in +several respects from that of the present work. + +The scope of this volume will be best understood by an explanation of +the circumstances that gave rise to it. Some useful and comparatively +inexpensive volumes illustrative of the Middle-English period have been +issued by the Clarendon Press; all of which are furnished with +glossaries, explaining all the important words, with exact references +to the passages wherein the words occur. In particular, the three +useful hand-books containing Specimens of English (from 1150 down to +1580) together supply no less than sixty-seven characteristic extracts +from the most important literary monuments of this period; and the +three glossaries to these books together fill more than 370 pages of +closely-printed type in double columns. The idea suggested itself that +it would be highly desirable to bring the very useful information thus +already collected _under one alphabet_, and this has now been effected. +At the same time, a reference has in every case been carefully given to +the _particular_ Glossarial Index which registers each form here cited, +so that it is perfectly easy for any one who consults our book to +refer, not merely to the particular Index thus noted, but to the +references given in that Index; and so, by means of such references, to +find every passage referred to, with its proper context. Moreover the +student only requires, for this purpose, a small array of the +text-books in the Clarendon Press Series, instead of a more or less +complete set of editions of Middle-English texts, the possession of +which necessitates a considerable outlay of money. By this plan, so +great a _compression_ of information has been achieved, that a large +number of the articles give a summary such as can be readily expanded +to a considerable length, by the exercise of a very little trouble; and +thus the work is practically as full of material as if it had been +three or four times its present size. A couple of examples will shew +what this really means. + +At p. 26 is the following entry:— + +‘Bi-heste, _sb._ promise, S, S2, C2, P; byheste, S2; beheste, S2; +byhest, S2; bihese, S; biheest, W; bihese, _pl._, S.—AS. _be-hǽs_.’ + +By referring to the respective indexes here cited, such as S (= +Glossary to Specimens of English, Part I), and the like, we easily +expand this article into the following:— + +‘Bi-heste, _sb._ promise, S (9. 19); S2 (1_a_. 184); C2 (B 37, 41, 42, +F 698); P (3. 126); byheste, S2 (18_b_. 25); beheste, S2 (14_a_. 3); +byhest, S2 (12. 57, 18_b_. 9, [where it may also be explained by +_grant_]); bihese, S (where it is used as a plural); biheest, W +(promise, command, Lk. xxiv. 49, Rom. iv. 13; pl. _biheestis_, Heb. xi. +13); bihese, S (_pl._ behests, promises, 4_d_. 55).—AS. _behǽs_.’ + +In order to exhibit the full meaning of this—which requires no further +explanation to those who have in hand the books denoted by S, S2, +&c.—it would be necessary to print the article at considerable length, +as follows:— + +‘Biheste, _sb._ promise; “dusi _biheste_” a foolish promise, (extract +from) Ancren Riwle, l. 19; “and wel lute wule hulde þe _biheste_ þat he +nom,” (extract from) Robert of Gloucester, l. 184; “holdeth your +_biheste_,” Chaucer, Introd. to Man of Law’s Prologue, l. 37; +“_biheste_ is dette,” same, l. 41; “al my _biheste_” same, l. 42; “or +breken his _biheste_” Chaucer, sequel to Squieres Tale, l. 698; “þorw +fals _biheste_,” Piers Plowman, Text B, Pass. iii, l. 126; “to +vol-vulle (fulfil) þat _byheste_” Trevisa (extract from), lib. vi. cap. +29, l. 25; “the lond of promyssioun, or of _beheste_,” Prol. to +Mandeville’s Travels, l. 3; “wiþ fair _by-hest_,” William and the +Werwolf, l. 57; “þe _byhest_ (promise, _or_ grant) of oþere menne +kyngdom,” Trevisa, lib. vi. cap. 29, l. 9; “y schal sende the _biheest_ +of my fadir in-to ȝou,” Wyclif, Luke xxiv. 49; “not bi the lawe is +_biheest_ to Abraham,” Wycl. Rom. iv. 13; “whanne the _biheestis_ weren +not takun,” Wycl. Heb. xi. 13; “longenge to godes _bihese_” Old Eng. +Homilies, Dominica iv. post Pascha, l. 55.’ + +We thus obtain fifteen excellent examples of the use of this word, with +the full context and an exact reference (easily verified) in every +case. And, in the above instance, all the quotations lie within the +compass of the eleven texts in the Clarendon Press Series denoted, +respectively, by S, S2, S3, C, C2, C3, W, W2, P, H, and G. + +The original design was to make use of these text-books only; but it +was so easy to extend it by including examples to be obtained from +other Glossaries and Dictionaries, that a considerable selection of +interesting words was added from these, mainly for the sake of +illustrating the words in the Clarendon text-books. These illustrative +words can be fully or partially verified by those who happen to possess +all or some of the works cited, or they can safely be taken on trust, +as really occurring there, any mistake being due to such authority. + +A second example will make this clearer. ‘Brant, _adj._ steep, high, +MD, HD; brent, JD; brentest, _superl._ S2.—AS. _brant_ (_bront_); cp. +Swed. _brant_, Icel. _brattr_.’ + +Omitting the etymology, the above information is given in two short +lines. Those who possess the ‘Specimens of English’ will easily find +the example of the superl. _brentest_. By consulting Mätzner’s, +Halliwell’s, and Jamieson’s Dictionaries, further information can be +obtained, and the full article will appear as follows:— + +‘Brant, _adj._ steep, high, MD [brant, brent, _adj._ ags. _brand_, +arduus, altus, altn. _brattr_, altschw. _branter_, schw. _brant_, +_bratt_, dän, _brat_, sch. _brent_, nordengl. Diall. _brant_: cf. +“_brant_, steepe,” Manipulus Vocabulorum, p. 25: steil, hoch.—“Apon the +bald Bucifelon _brant_ up he sittes,” King Alexander, ed. Stevenson, p. +124; “Thir mountaynes ware als _brant_ upritȝe as thay had bene +walles,” MS. quoted in Halliwell’s Dict., p. 206; “Hyȝe bonkkes & +_brent_,” Gawain and the Grene Knight, l. 2165; “Bowed to þe hyȝ bonk +þer _brentest_ hit wern,” Alliterative Poems, ed. Morris, Poem B, l. +379]; HD [brant, steep. _North_: “Brant against Flodden Hill,” +explained by Nares from Ascham, “up the steep side;” cf. Brit. Bibl. i. +132, same as _brandly_?—“And thane thay com tille wonder heghe +mountaynes, and it semed as the toppes had towched the firmament; and +thir mountaynes were als _brant_ upriȝte as thay had bene walles, so +that ther was na clymbyng upon thame,” Life of Alexander, MS. Lincoln, +fol. 38]; JD [brent, _adj._ high, straight, upright; “My bak, that +sumtyme _brent_ hes bene, Now cruikis lyk are camok tre,” Maitland +Poems, p. 193; _followed by a discussion extending to more than 160 +lines of small print, which we forbear to quote_]; brentest, _superl._ +S2. 13. 379 [“And bowed to þe hyȝ bonk þer _brentest_ hit were (MS. +wern),” Allit. Poems, l. 379; _already cited in_ Mätzner, _above_].’ + +The work, in fact, contains a very large collection of words, in many +variant forms, appearing in English literature and in Glossaries +between A.D. 1150 and A.D. 1580. The glossaries in S2, S3 (Specimens of +English, 1298-1393, and 1394-1579) have furnished a considerable number +of words belonging to the Scottish dialect, which most dictionaries +(excepting of course that of Jamieson) omit. + +The words are so arranged that even the beginner will, in general, +easily find what he wants. We have included in one article, together +with the Main Word, all the variant spellings of the glossaries, as +well as the etymological information. We have also given in +alphabetical order numerous cross-references to facilitate the finding +of most of the variant forms, and to connect them with the Main Word. +In this way, the arrangement is at once etymological and +alphabetical—adapted to the needs of the student of the language and of +the student of the literature. + +The meanings of the words are given in modern English, directly after +the Main Word. The variant forms, as given in their alphabetical +position, are frequently also explained, thus saving (in such cases) +the trouble of a cross-reference, if the meaning of the word is alone +required. + +An attempt is made in most cases to give the etymology, so far at least +as to shew the immediate source of the Middle-English word. Especial +pains have been taken with the words of French origin, which form so +large a portion of the vocabulary of the Middle-English period. In many +cases the AF (Anglo-French) forms are cited, from my list of English +Words found in Anglo-French, as published for the Philological Society +in 1882. + +The student of English who wishes to trace back the history of a word +still in use can, in general, find the Middle-English form in Skeat’s +Etymological Dictionary, and will then be able to consult the present +work in order to obtain further instances of its early use. + +The relative share of the authors in the preparation of this work is +easily explained. The whole of it in its present form (with the +exception of the letter N) was compiled, prepared, and written out for +press by Mr. Mayhew. The original plan was, however, my own; and I +began by writing out the letter N (since augmented) by way of +experiment and model. It will thus be seen that Mr. Mayhew’s share of +the work has been incomparably the larger, involving all that is most +laborious. On the other hand, I may claim that much of the labour was +mine also, at a much earlier stage, as having originally compiled or +revised the glossaries marked S2, S3, C2, C3, W, W2, P, and G, as well +as the very full glossarial indexes cited as B, PP, and WA, and the +dictionary cited as SkD. The important glossary marked S was, however, +originally the work of Dr. Morris (since re-written by Mr. Mayhew), and +may, in a sense, be said to be the back-bone of the whole, from its +supplying a very large number of the most curious and important early +forms. + +The material used has been carefully revised by both authors, so that +they must be held to be jointly responsible for the final form in which +the whole is now offered to the public. + +1. A new and thoroughly revised edition of Stratmann’s Dictionary is +being prepared by Mr. Henry Bradley, for the Delegates of the Clarendon +Press. + + +Note On The Phonology Of Middle-English. + +One great difficulty in finding a Middle-English word in this, or any +other, Dictionary is due to the frequent variation of the symbols +denoting the vowel-sounds. Throughout the whole of the period to which +the work relates the symbols _i_ and _y_, in particular, are constantly +interchanged, whether they stand alone, or form parts of diphthongs. +Consequently, words which are spelt with one of these symbols in a +given text must frequently be looked for as if spelt with the other; +i.e. the pairs of symbols _i_ and _y_, _ai_ and _ay_, _ei_ and _ey_, +_oi_ and _oy_, _ui_ and _uy_, must be looked upon as likely to be used +indifferently, one for the other. For further information, the student +should consult the remarks upon Phonology in the Specimens of English +(1150 to 1300), 2nd ed., p. xxv. For those who have not time or +opportunity to do this, a few brief notes may perhaps suffice. + +The following symbols are frequently confused, or are employed as +equivalent to each other because they result from the same sound in the +Oldest English or in Anglo-French:— + +_i_, _y_;—_ai_, _ay_;—_ei_, _ey_;—_oi_, _oy_;—_ui_, _uy_. + +_a_, _o_;—_a_, _æ_, _e_, _ea_;—_e_, _eo_, _ie_;—_o_, _u_, _ou_;—(all +originally short). + +_a_, _æ_, _ea_, _e_, _ee_;—_e_, _ee_, _eo_, _ie_;—_o_, _oo_, _oa_;—_u_, +_ou_, _ui_;—(all long). + +These are the most usual interchanges of symbols, and will commonly +suffice for practical purposes, in cases where the cross-references +fail. If the word be not found after such substitutions have been +allowed for, it may be taken for granted that the Dictionary does not +contain it. As a fact, the Dictionary only contains a considerable +number of such words as are most common, or (for some special reason) +deserve notice; and it is at once conceded that it is but a small +hand-book, which does not pretend to exhibit in all its fulness the +extraordinarily copious vocabulary of our language at an important +period of its history. The student wishing for complete information +will find (in course of time) that the New English Dictionary which is +being brought out by the Clarendon Press will contain all words found +in our literature since the year 1100. + +Of course variations in the vowel-sounds are also introduced, in the +case of strong verbs, by the usual ‘gradation’ due to their method of +conjugation. To meet this difficulty in some measure, numerous (but not +exhaustive) cross-references have been introduced, as when, e.g. ‘Bar, +bare’ is given, with a cross-reference to Beren. Further help in this +respect is to be had from the table of 183 strong verbs given at pp. +lxix-lxxxi of the Preface to Part I of the Specimens of English (2nd +edition); see, in particular, the alphabetical index to the same, at +pp. lxxxi, lxxxii. The same Preface further contains some account of +the three principal Middle-English dialects (p. xl), and Outlines of +the Grammar (p. xlv). It also explains the meaning of the symbols þ, ð +(both used for _th_), ȝ (used for _y_ initially, _gh_ medially, and +_gh_ or _z_ finally), with other necessary information. + + +The Clarendon Press Glossaries. + +This work gives _all_ the words and _every_ form contained in the +glossaries to eleven publications in the Clarendon Press Series, as +below:— + +S.—Specimens of Early English, ed.

The comma is used to connect various spellings of a word, as +well as parallel forms cited from nearly connected languages; for +instance, s.v. daunger, the OF. forms are so connected. The semi-colon +between two forms denotes that the two forms are phonetically +equivalent, and that the preceding one is directly derived from, and is +historically connected with the one following this symbol; for +instance, s.v. bugle, the OF. _bugle_ is the phonetic equivalent of the +Lat. _buculum_, and is immediately derived therefrom. The colon between +two forms denotes that the two forms are phonetically equivalent, and +that the form following this symbol is an earlier, more primitive form +than the one preceding, without an immediate interborrowing between the +languages being asserted; for instance, s.v. demen, the Goth. _dómjan_ +is an older form than the AS. _déman_, but _déman_ is not borrowed from +the Gothic. The abbreviation ‘cp.’ introduces other cognate forms, and +has the same value as the symbol + in Skeat’s Dictionaries. + +The asterisk * at the beginning of a word denotes a theoretical form, +assumed (upon scientific principles) to have formerly existed. The sign += is to be read ‘a translation of.’ ‘(_n_)’ after Prompt., Cath. and +other authorities refers to foot-notes or other notes citing the form +in question. + + + + +A CONCISE +DICTIONARY OF MIDDLE-ENGLISH. + + + + +A. + + +A-, _prefix_ (1), adding _intensity_ to the notion of the verb.—AS. _á_ +for _ar-_, OHG. _ar-_, Goth. _us-_.

The regular OF. equivalent for Lat. _camēlum_ was _chameil_. In +OF. _camel_ the termination _-el_ is due to analogy with French forms +derived from _-ālem_. See BH, § 43. + +Canoun. Church Lat. _canonicus_ did not mean originally ‘one on the +church-roll or list,’ but one who was bound to observe a certain rule +of life (_canon_, κανών). OF. _chanoine_ is not the precise equivalent +of _canonicum_, but represents a Latin type *_canonium_. See Scheler’s +Dict.

A derivation of this word from the French has not been +proved.—OF. _ernes_ does not exist. + +Falten. The form falt should be taken away from this article and placed +under Folden. The words _falt mi tunge_ mean ‘my tongue gives way.’ For +the various meanings of this verb folden, see MD (ii. 68). This +correction is due to the kindness of Prof. Napier. + +For-swinken, _v._ to exhaust with toil; forswonke, _pp._, S3 (p. 364, +l. 24). + +Frayd, _pp._ frightened, S3; fraid, scared, S3; see Afrayen. + +Habide, _v._ to abide, resist, S2; see A-biden. + +Hagt. Dr. F. Holthausen suggests that this word means ‘danger, peril,’ +comparing this ME. _hagt_ with Icel. _hætta_ which has the same +meaning. Kluge connects this _hætta_ with Gothic _hāhan_, to hang, so +that it may mean radically ‘a state of being in suspense.’ The word +must have come into England in the form *_haht_, before the +assimilation of _ht_ to _tt_. + +Hal, _adj._ all, S2; see Al. + +Ham, _1 pr. s._ am, S; see Am. + +Haxede, _pt. s._ asked, S; see Asken. + +Here, _adv._ before, S; see Er. + +Heremyte, _sb._ hermit, S2; heremites, _pl._, P; see Ermite. + +Hulpen. (To be placed more to the right.) + +Ich, _adj._ each, S, S2; see Eche. + +Ieden, _pt. pl._ went, S; see Eode. + +Joutes. For _jutā_ read _jūta_. For other cognates of this wide-spread +word, see Kluge (s.v. _jauche_). See also s.v. _käse_, where Kluge +remarks that Icel. _ostr_, cheese, and Finnish _juusto_, cheese, are +etymologically connected with G. _jauche_, and Latin _jus_. + +Kepen. AS. _cépan_, to keep, should be kept quite distinct from AS. +_cýpan_, to sell. AS. _cýpan_ is the phonetic representative of OTeut. +_kaupjan_, whereas _cépan_, to keep, represents an OTeut. *_kōpjan_. +Cp. E. _keen_, the representative of AS. _céne_, OTeut. *_kōni_ (G. +_kühn_). See Kluge’s note in P. & B. Beiträge, viii. 538. + +Mo. Add ) at the end. + +Note, _sb._ nut. A better explanation of _not-heed_ is ‘with the hair +of the head closely cut.’ The verb to _nott_ means to cut the hair +close. ‘_Tondre_, to sheer, clip, cut, powle, _nott_’; Cotgrave. + +Onond, _prep._ as regards, respecting, S; onont, S; see An-ent. + +Quene. It should be noted that E. _queen_ is not precisely the same +word as E. _quean_. For _queen_ is the phonetic equivalent of AS. +_cwén_, Goth. _kwēns_, whereas _quean_ represents AS. _cwĕne_, Goth. +_kwĭno_. + +Senged, _pp._ sun-burnt, S3 (p. 364, l. 29); see Sengin. + +Sisour, _sb._ juror, PP; sysour, P; see Asisour. + +Stok. Prof. Napier maintains that the stokess of the Ormulum cannot be +identified with AS. _stocc_, as the gemination of the consonant +persists in the Ormulum. He suggests that stokess means ‘places,’ +comparing the use of _stoke_ in place-names, e.g. _Wude stoke_ in +Chron. (Earle, p. 249), He also cites in illustration AS. _stoc-weard_, +‘oppidanus,’ see Leo, p. 206. + +Sum (1). _Dele_ ‘sumere, dat., S;’ + +Twichand, _pres. pt._ touching, regarding, S3 (13. 271). + +Tyred, _pp._ attired, dressed, S2; see Atyren. + +Urþe (written Vrþe), _sb._ earth, S2; see Erthe. + +Whicche, a chest, trunk, box; whucche, PP; whyche, Prompt.; hoche, +Prompt.—AS. _hwicce_; ‘Clustella, _hwicce_;’ Engl.

The +word _wikes_ is still in use in this sense at Whitby. See Whitby +Glossary (E.D.S.). + +Wone, _adj._ one, S3 (7. 97); see Oon. + +Wyne-grapis, _sb. pl._ vine-grapes, S3 (13. 99). + + + + +Transcriber’s Notes: + + +Underlining +Errors +Alphabetization +Hyphens + +Underlining in the Dictionary + +All underlining was added by the transcriber. You will see the +following forms: + +errors noted by transcriber +errors noted by author +ambiguous hyphens (underlining intentionally faint) +Greek words (underlining should be invisible in most browsers) +text from Additions and Corrections (outlined as a block) + + +Errors and Inconsistencies + +For errors corrected by the authors, see the Additions and Corrections +section. + +Typographical errors are shown in the text with mouse-hover popups. +Most errors are trivial, such as missing or incorrect punctuation or +misplaced italics. Variant abbreviations such as “O.H.G.” for “OHG.” +have been regularized to the forms given in the Authorities and +Language lists. The word “invisible” in corrections means that there is +an appropriately sized blank space in the printed text. + +Errors in Greek accents were silently corrected. A few minor variations +were retained, including: + +“hedgehog” or “hedghog” +Cf. or Cp. +(_n_) or (_n._) +_pt. pr._ or _pt.-pr._ + +Alphabetization in the Dictionary + +Unless otherwise noted, words are spelled and alphabetized as +originally printed. Note in particular: + +The letter Æ æ is alphabetized as ae. + +The letter I is alphabetized according to its phonetic value, vowel +before consonant. J is not used. + +Thorn Þ þ and eth ð (capital Ð does not occur) are alphabetized as th. + +The letters U and V are shown with the _form_ used in their source +documents, but are _alphabetized_ by phonetic value. A few sequences +such as initial Su- do not make this distinction. + +Yogh Ȝ ȝ is alphabetized after y. + +_Technical Note_ + +Anchors of Dictionary headwords are in the form word_entry (lower case) +with these modifications: + +— æ, ð, þ, ȝ have been expanded to ae, dh, th, gh + +— diacritical marks and medial hyphens have been omitted + +— spaces (only in phrases) have been changed to _ lines + +— duplicate headwords are identified by part of speech and, if +necessary, by number: word_thanne_adv; word_on_prefix_1. If the text +uses numbers, as with groups of identically spelled prefixes, the +anchor will use the same number. + +Hyphens At Line-End + +The book’s two-column format resulted in a great many line-end hyphens. +Most hyphenated words were unique, so the ordinary tests (“Is this +word, or a structurally similar one, hyphenated on its other +occurrences?”) could seldom be used. + +Line-end hyphens in cross-references (“see”, “see also”, “cf.”) were +kept or omitted based on the form of the cross-referenced headword. +Note that hyphenization in this situation is very inconsistent. Except +in the Additions, cross-references often omit a mid-line hyphen that is +present in the referenced word, or include one that is absent. + +Line-end hyphens were retained in past participles in i-, y- and +equivalent, and after the prefixes out- and to-; they were omitted +before common endings such as -lich, -ship, -ness, -full. They were +removed after Middle English un-, but retained after Anglo-Saxon un-. + +The remaining line-end hyphens were omitted _unless_ they were in the +same location (morphological boundary) as the hyphen in the headword, +or if the hyphenated word was a compound. Within these two groups, +final decisions were based on more fluid criteria such as internal +consistency within an entry, or hyphenization of other words from the +same source. Words printed with these types of ambiguous hyphens are +lightly underlined in the e-text. The position of omitted hyphens is +generally obvious, and has not been explicitly marked. + + + + +End of the Project Gutenberg EBook of A Concise Dictionary of Middle English, by A. L.
