N. Logemann: "fugelespyse."
[2]:
Written over wise is pise.
Read either fugelespise, or fugeleswise. Identification based on L DELPHINION (cf. Dioscorides III,77(84); Berendes 1902,451). Recorded in the DOE, s.v. fugel.
Etymology: A motivation towards 'fugel-' could be related to the form of the flowers, which also motivated ModF pied d'alouette (= model for ModE 'larkspur'; cf. Grigson 1974,s.v.). Because of the general meaning of wīse 'sprout, stalk; Spross, Stängel' I tend to assume an original name fuglespise 'bird-pea, Vogelerbse' (cf. our notes): it could have been motivated by the appearance of Delphinium staphisagria L., lice-bane, Stephanskraut, which is described in Dioscorides "Die wilde Staphis [...] trägt [...] die Samen in grünen Hülsen wie bei der Erbse" (Berendes 1906,451).
