owercome

owercome (plural owercomes)

1. (archaic) The refrain of a song.
   • 1902, John Buchan, The Outgoing of the Tide:

     'Blue are the hills that are far away,' is an owercome in the countryside, and while at first on his side it may have been but a young man's fancy, to her he was like the god Apollo descending from the skies.
