2 saura(þ)
adj. "foul, evil-smelling, putrid" THUS, foul, vile PE17:183. This adjective underlies the name Sauro, Sauron q.v. Alternatively explained to mean cruel PE17:184; a deleted gloss defined the word as bad, unhealthy, ill, wretched PE17:172. Tolkien did not consistently hold that the initial s represents older þ; sometimes he derived saura and so implicitly Sauron from stems with original s-.
