Becall

1741, Conny Keyber (pseudonym; attributed to Henry Fielding), An Apology for the Life of Mrs. Shamela Andrews, edited by Sheridan W. Baker, Jr., Berkeley: University of California Press, 1953, Letter 6, p. 27, I no sooner see him, but I scream out to Mrs. Jervis, she feigns likewise but just to come to herself; we both begin, she to becall, and I to bescratch very liberally.

You must not becall me for laughing when you spoke; you mistook when you thought I laughed at you as a foolish man.
