From Middle English semewe, semawe (“seagull”), equivalent to sea + mew (“gull”).

noun seamews · sea-mew · sea mew

  1. The common gull (Larus canus). Now dance the lights on lawn and lea, The flocks are whiter down the vale, And milkier every milky sail On winding stream or distant sea; Where now the seamew pipes, or dives In yonder greening gleam, and fly The happy birds, that change their sky To build and brood
