释义

† ˈbevar, ? a. or n. Obs.
In 3 beuir, 5 Sc. bevar.
[Of doubtful origin and meaning: most conjectures refer it to bever v. to tremble, shake.]
Known only in bevar hore. Since ME. hore (now hoar, q.v.) was both adj. ‘hoary,’ and n. ‘grey-beard’ (Ger. greis), it remains uncertain whether bevar was an adj. ‘feeble, worn-out,’ or a n. ‘old man’ or ? ‘feeble old man.’
