[OE. hęrᵹian, hęrian, = OLG. herron, MLG., MDu. heren, hergen (heregen, herien), OHG. harjôn, herjôn, herron, MHG. heren, herjen, herigen, hergen, ON. herja, Da. hærge:—OTeut. type *harjôjan, f. *harjo- host, army, here n. It is notable that in this word the OE. ᵹ from j, though originally palatal (cf. pple. heriende in ælfred's Orosius), passed over into the guttural spirant, giving w in ME. This prob. took place first before the back vowels, in pa. tense herᵹode, pa. pple. herᵹod, vbl. n. herᵹung, whence, by extension, the ME. present, herwhe, herwe, harwe, harrow v.2, beside the normal herȝe, heryhe, herry, harry. In ME. the native word may have run together with OF. harier, herier, herrier, in same sense.]
