But

Explained by all the glossarists as hare and hound. how will that construction of the phrase apply in regard to the inhabitants of a city? What can the hare and hound have to do here? Surely such a solution is the climax of glossarial absurdity! I take here to be as the above heere, heer in the sense of lord [superior], one of whom vassals hold, the head of the homage, and houne as participle present of houen, houden, the holding the vassals, the tenants, the then holders in servitude, bondsmen; or in the sense of persons attached, dependant upon, holding or retaining from, friendly, well inclined to; and thus in either sense as the high and low, the great and their retainers or dependants, and so every body in the town, inhabitants of all degrees and ranks. Heer-houd, heer-hou [hou], is a term for the lord [master] and his retainers, those attached [bound] to him; the chief and his dependants. Houde, holde, hulde, is the homage, the people who compose the homage of the lord of the superiority, the vassals, now called tenantry. Houd, hold, huld, is also obsequions, observant, faithful. Houden, gehouden, is beholden to, bound to, obliged to, tied down to. And our term GOOD-MAN has, I suspect, its now derogatory and vilifying import, from its being the travesty of gehoud-man, as bondsman, vassal, feudal slave, one belonging to the homage of the superior or lord of such holding. Both the original and travesty have a same sound, and good is not used ironically in this phrase, as JonsSON gratuitously supposes, but is used in its true sense, which was that of a man of inferior station. My good man is never used but as an insulting assumption in the mouth of the purseproud and arrogant upstarts to those from whom they trust they shall not receive their due chastisement in return. When it was used in its proper place and in its fair but now ohsolete sense, the term implied simply a boor, or one employed in the agricultural service of another, a sense, however, arising out of its original import of vassal, bondsman. I have little doubt the low Latin term homagium, in French hommage, with us homage, is grounded in the old Dutch how, houw, hof, as the hailing [encouraging] shout, the welcoming hail; whenea houden, holden, hulden, obsequium et fidem præstare and, hulde, obsequium et observantia clientis sive vasalli. Unless in a some what analogous sense it springs out of homme, as the participle present of hummen, hommen, bommen, to buzz, to resound, and is thus as the buzz, or resounding noise of the shouts or acclammations used in receptions and inaugurations by subjects or dependants.

TO BROOK,

"He could not brook the affront," he could not bend [submit, yield] to the affront; he could not let it pass over [stoop to it], he was not inclined to yield [bow] to it, to put up with it. Brooken;

q. e. to bend, to incline, to bow, to stoop, and so to give way to, to let pass by, to yield to. Hence our Sailor's term of to broche to, used when the ship, on being struck by a wave sternwards on the side, swerves, bends or turns the bow towards the direction whence the blow came, and thus yields [gives way] to the shock; ch, as is well known, had formerly the sound of k with us; church, chirch, and kirk are one word. A brooch, as an ornament, a jewel, also belongs here, being formerly the collar to which the jewel was appended, as in those of the different orders of knighthood, and was then as that which was held by, that which was bent or went round the neck, as a collar does; and so does brook, as naturally flowing water, that which bends from its rise into a circling, serpentine, or bending course; and how else is the springing water to depart from it's level and find it's means of flowing? JoHNSON tells us the term is as the Anglo-Saxon broc, broca ; but that is only another form of the spelling of the same word in another dialect of a same language, and not the source of our term. HORNE TOOKE tells you the word is grounded in the Gothick and Anglo-Saxon brikan, brecan, brackan, to break; but why is a brook a break? Till it becomes a brook, it is a fountain, a rising up, a springing up, an issuing out, and is no brook, till it turns [swerves] from that direction and takes its bending or winding course. A mere whim! and indeed his own extracts or vouchers prove his misconception of the word itself. For instance, his quotation from Vis. P. PLOUGHMAN.

And so houseth * furth by a nuoRE ↑ beeth busome of apoch, fyll you fyndon a forde, your fathers honourable, Wade in that water and wash you well there,"

BEAUMONT AND Firichen,

Brooken, broken, to bend from, in, or out; to form a curve, to bow or bend indefinitely, and so to bow or bend round; whence broke, broucke, breucke, as the participle present.
