† eyrern.

Forms: Middle English ayrer, Middle English eyerer, Middle English 1600s eyrer, late Middle English eyere, late Middle English heyer, late Middle English heyere.

Origin: Of uncertain origin. Perhaps formed within English, by derivation. Etymons: aire n.¹, -er suffix¹; egg n., -er suffix¹.

Etymology: Origin uncertain; perhaps (i) < aire n.¹ + -er suffix¹, although derivation (ii) < the plural of egg n. (compare α. forms at that entry) + -er suffix¹ has also been suggested.

Obsolete.

Originally: a brood swan. In later use: a brood falcon. Also figurative.In quots. c1475¹, c1475² with reference to an eagle. The sense in these quots. has been variously interpreted: N.E.D. (1894) placed quot. c1475² (with the spelling given as eyere) at eyer n. 1, and this quot. was also placed (with the spelling given as heyere) at higher n.² in N.E.D. (1898); but the context in the work cited, referring to raising and protecting a brood (in an allegorical context) suggests it is more likely that an extended use of eyrer was intended.
