† warlingn.

Forms: 1500s werlyng, 1600s worling, worldling, 1600s– warling.

Etymology: apparently formed arbitrarily to rhyme with darling . The resemblance to the Scots wirling n. seems to be accidental.

Obsolete.

One who is despised or disliked. Only in the proverb (see quots.) and allusively. In the proverb snarling is sometimes substituted for warling; the form worldling is an obvious perversion.
