To swallow or gulp down; variant or dialectal form of englut.
Variant of englut, possibly influenced by Latin glutire ('to swallow') or representing an alternative formation. The -ute ending may represent influence from Latin verb forms, which were common in Early Modern English technical vocabulary.
Englute is so rare that historians debate whether it's actually a distinct word or just a variant spelling of 'englut.' Medieval and Early Modern texts are full of such one-off words that scribes invented, used once, and abandoned—language was more fluid and creative back then.
