The following information has failed Wiktionary's verification process.

Failure to be verified means that insufficient eligible citations of this usage have been found, and the entry therefore does not meet Wiktionary inclusion criteria at the present time. We have archived here the disputed information, the verification discussion, and any documentation gathered so far, pending further evidence.

I've found examples of use, but "lusty rogue" seems a stretch (perhaps it just means "scoundrel"?), and "naked man" is wholly unattested. — Beobach 23:18, 21 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The "lusty rogue" sense may just be a flowery 1811 way of saying "scoundrel", the attested sense. It is interesting that I cannot find support for the "naked man" sense, though, given that "abram" is (above) supposed to mean "naked". — Beobach 20:08, 27 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
I have removed the two unattested senses as RFV-failed. — Beobach 22:17, 4 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
