† ˈthrimness Obs. Forms: 2 þrimnis, þreomnes, 2–3 þrem-, þrim-, (Orm.) þrimmnesse, 3 þrum- (ü). [Early ME. alteration of OE. þrines, þrinnes, thrinness. The change may have been due to association with OE. þrymm thrum n.1, majesty, glory, and its compounds, as þrymsetl throne, þrymsittende (cf. ‘seo þrynis þrymsittende’, ‘the Trinity sitting in glory’); but in that case we should have expected the form with þrym to have appeared in OE.] The Trinity. Cf. threeness.
