† clerewortn.

Origin: Formed within English, by compounding. Etymons: an element of uncertain origin, wort n.¹

Etymology: < an element of uncertain origin + wort n.¹It has been suggested that the word shows a reflex of Old English clǣfrewyrt a kind of clover ( < clover n. + wort n.¹), which would fit the context of the passage well. Alternatively, the first element could perhaps show clear adj.

Obsolete. rare.

Possibly = Old English clæferwyrt Small Clover (? Trifolium minus).
