king geld
king geld n. Obsolete (apparently) money paid by a vassal to his lord in lieu of military service; = scutage n. [It is not entirely certain that the first element is king n., as assumed in quot. 1706 and modern English legal glossaries. Compare Middle Dutch conincgelt an obligatory payment, Old High German kuninggelt tax, but also (in different sense) Old English cynegyld payment made for the slaying of the king (in which the first element is kine- comb. form1). Compare further cyningfeorm food rent due to the king (see quot. OE at Compounds 1a, and compare farm n.1).]
