Note 731 — Chapter LVI · DISEASES OF THE FEET[731] THE “PINNE”[732] IN THE FEET
D. C. (Douglas Craven) Phillott translation
“When yowre hawkes fete be swollyn she hath the podagre.”—Boke of St. Albans. “Podager” is said to be gout in the feet (from pod “a foot”), but the name was probably applied to the initial stage of the “pinne in the feet” of other writers.
