Middle English citations of babber-lipped

• 1390, William Langland, Piers Plowman:

  And then came Covetise, can I him not descrive, So hungrily and hollow Sir Hervey him looked; He was beetle-browed, and babber-lipped also, With two bleared een as a blind hag, And as a leathern purse lolled his checks, Well syder than his chin, they shriveled for eld: And as a bondman of his bacon his beard was bedrivelled, With an hood on his head and a lousy hat above.
