OED2 fails to note this form. It might represent nothing more than a slip of
the pen creating an accidental ascender on the <c>. But the R scribe clearly renders
this word in the same way at R18.369 as well. MED cites a parallel from a
fifteenth-century manuscript of Hilton's Scale of Perfection: "If þei
wilen vndirstonden holi writ and dottours sawes þerof, þei
schulden finden as I seye." and it be youre wille .
