▪ II. † ˈtary, v. Obs.
Forms: 4–5 tarien, 5 teryyn, (tarry), 5–6 tarie, -ye, (tarrie), tary.
[ME. tery-yn, tari-en appears to represent in form and sense both OE. tęrᵹan, *tærᵹ(e)an, tyrian, *tęrian, to provoke, and OF. tarier to provoke, excite, in F. dial. to vex, irritate, torment, tease (of doubtful origin). In so far as tary was of OE. origin, it was a doublet of tar v.2 See Note.]
1. trans. To provoke, vex, worry, harass.

The form teryyn (= tery-en, teri-en) in Promp. Parv., with its derivatives teryare, teryynge, points to OE. tęrᵹan, with the palatal ᵹ reduced to y consonant or i, as in the actually recorded late OE. form tyrian (imper. tyrie, pa. tense tyrᵹde, tyriᵹde, tyride), giving a ME. teri-en (tery-yn), with a variant tary-en, tari-en, perh. from an Anglian *tærᵹ(e)an, as in weryen, warien, from OE. węrᵹean, wærᵹean, więrᵹan, wyrᵹean, wyrian, warry, to curse. The coincidence of tarien in form and meaning with OF. tarier would tend to reinforce it as the leading form. It is noteworthy that ME. examples of tary- are not known before c 1300, and that tery- is cited only from Promp. Parv. As to possible connexion with tarry see Note to that vb.] ▪ III. tary, taryance, -ans etc.,
