pope's eyen.

Brit.

/ˈpəʊps ˌʌɪ/, U.S.

/ˈpoʊps ˌaɪ/

Forms: 1600s–1700s 1900s (Scottish)– popes eye, 1600s– pope's eye, 1800s pope's e'e (Scottish). Also with capital initial.

Origin: Formed within English, by compounding. Etymons: pope n.¹, eye n.¹

Etymology: < the genitive of pope n.¹ + eye n.¹ In sense 1 so called from the resemblance of the circular area of fat to the human eye; compare early modern German pfaffensbissel (early 16th cent.), German †Pfaffensbisschen (1711 or earlier), lit. ‘priest's bit’, probably as being a titbit which the priest was supposed to claim, also French œil de Judas , lit. ‘Judas's eye’. In sense 2 so called from the colour and markings of the bird's plumage (compare quot. 1996 at sense 2).

a. A circular area of fat (often surrounding a lymph node) esp. in the thigh of a sheep or other hoofed mammal, formerly regarded as a delicacy.
