† outraious, a. Obs.
Also 6 outraous, -rayious.
[app. f. outray n. + -ous.
In the first quot. repr. outraius, i.e. outrajus in the F. original, so that the Eng. also may be for outrajous = outrageous. On the other hand outraous in quot. 1523 cannot be so explained.]
= outrageous a., in its various senses.
