bountethbountithn.

Etymology: apparently < Old French bontet, buntet /bunˈteθ/, the earlier (11–12th cent.) form of bonté , whence bounty n. (compare poortith, dainteth, faith). But the word is known only since the 15th cent. (in later times only in Scotch), so that its historical connection with the Old French word is not illustrated.
