cestrinn.

Etymology: French cestrin ‘a kind of yellow stone whereof beads are made’ (Cotgrave 1611). The original of the passage in Rabelais does not speak of it as a stone, and French writers have suggested that it may have been the resin of the Socotrine aloe, medieval Latin aloes cicatrina.Previous versions of the OED give the stress as: ˈcestrin.

Obsolete.
