Made crippled or disabled; rendered unable to move or function normally.
From 'be-' plus 'crippled' (disabled or limping); the 'be-' prefix emphasizes the action of becoming or being made crippled.
Medieval texts used 'becrippled' to describe injuries or illnesses that disabled people—it's a more active verb form than our modern 'disabled,' suggesting something happens to you rather than what you are.
