[Sca-librarians] oed for aquila?

[Loren D Mendelsohn]

AQUILA isn't in the OED.  AQUILE is the closest word that 
is:

a'quile, v.
Obs. rare.
Deriv. and meaning unknown. Dr. Morris suggests: To 
demand, ask, or obtain? 
c1325 E.E. Allit. P. A. 960 Of {th}e lombe I haue {th}e 
aquylde For a sy{ygh}t {th}er of {th}ur{ygh} gret fauor. 
(Cf. l. 689.)

So, nobody seems to know what it means, but it appears to 
bear no relationship to the Latin AQUILA
