Origin: A borrowing from French. Etymon: French meseise.

Etymology: < Anglo-Norman meseise, mesaise, miseise, Old French meseise, mesaise, messaise trouble, difficulty, discomfort, affliction (12th cent.; French mésaise ) < mes- mis- prefix² + aise ease n. The specific sense ‘poverty, need, want’ appears to be an English development (although compare Anglo-Norman mesaisié in sense ‘poverty-stricken’: see miseasy adj.); with the sense ‘lack of the necessities of life’ compare Anglo-Norman miseise in 13th cent. apparently in sense ‘physical privation’.

Now archaic.
