Randoune, in, 2542.
The corresponding line (l. 739) suggests that _in Randoune_ =
_al about_, i.e. in a circuit. But if we translate it by “in
haste,” or “in great force,” we keep nearer to the true
etymology. In Ogilvie’s Imperial Dictionary, _s.v._ Random,
we find the Nor. Fr. _randonnée_ explained to mean the “sweeping
circuit made by a wounded and frightened animal;” but the true
meaning of _randonnée_ is certainly _force, impetuosity_; see
R., Cotgrave, etc. In Danish, _rand_ is a surrounding edge or
margin; while in Dutch we find _rondom_ round about.
