1 ene 1591 año - gored

Descripción:

This word is found in descriptions of cattle, and the meaning suggested by one editor is that it might be ‘gored’, as by another cow’s horn. The frequency of the term makes that seem unlikely: 1529 <i>to ... my son a gored whye the better</i>, Preston (Th9/267); 1549 <i>a gawd whie stirke</i>, Newton Kyme (Th24/317); 1552 <i>vnto ... my doughter ...</i> <i>a gared cowe</i>, Thorp Arch (Th19/324); 1556 <i>to Jenet my wif one gared cowe</i>, Garforth (Th27/46); 1558 <i>vnto Joan my doughter a gowred cowe</i>, Fairburn (Th27/194); 1591 <i>one reade gard whie stirke</i>, Hudswell (YRS152/298). However, almost all the references are found in the Leeds area and a link with ‘gard, garded’ seems possible. Note: 1505 <i>I witto John Jakson a gordid whye,</i> Leeds (Th4/16).
