baberyn.

Brit.

/ˈbeɪbəri/, U.S.

/ˈbeɪbəri/

Forms:

α. late Middle English babeuwry, late Middle English babeweuries (plural), 1500s babeuries (plural, in print of lost Middle English MS), 1700s babewries (plural, historical).

β. 1500s baberie, 1500s– babery.

Origin: Perhaps a variant or alteration of another lexical item. Etymon: baboonery n.

Etymology: Originally (in α. forms) perhaps a variant (with loss of medial -n- ) of baboonery n. (although this is first attested later; compare α. forms at baboonery n. and α. forms at baboon n.). In later use (in β. forms) probably originally a variant of the α. forms with reduction of the second syllable, probably reinforced by reanalysis as showing babe n. or baby n. + -ery suffix (compare baby n. 5).Earlier currency is apparently implied by post-classical Latin babeweria (1322 in a British source), which appears to show an isolated borrowing of the English word:1322 in Hist. MSS Comm.: Rep. MSS Var. Coll. (1914) VII. 334 in Parl. Papers (Cd. 6722) XXVI. 1 j. sella pro palefrie cum babeweria de ibornio.

Now rare.

Grotesque or absurd ornamentation, carving, or pictures; an example of this. Cf. baboonery n. 1, baby n. 5.Johnson (1755) gives the definition: ‘finery to please a babe or child’, which is followed in some later dictionaries.
