speaking of tangled webs (weren't we?), the 2nd OED citation for aile reads thusly:
c1386 Chaucer Knt.'s T. 1619, I am thyn Aiel redy at thy wille.
the 1st citation is almost indecipherable, is this what you were referring to Ann?
1377 Langl. P. Pl. B. xv. 317 To Šiue fram Šowre eyres · þat Šowre ayeles Šow lefte. [note the Icelandic thorn!]
