flemensfirthn.

Etymology: One of the many corrupt forms (see quots.) of Old English flýmena fyrmð, lit. ‘entertainment of fugitives’.Previous versions of the OED give the stress as: ˈflemensfirth.

1. A term of Old English law, probably meaning the offence of entertaining a banished person, and hence the king's right of exacting a penalty for this offence. The word was probably not understood after the Old English period, but was preserved in formal enumerations of the rights pertaining to the king. The explanations in the quots. are the conjectures of legal antiquaries. A synonymous term flýman feorm (see farm n.¹) occurs. in Old English laws, and is cited in various corrupt forms in law-books.
