Well, with Kent, one can never be sure what dictionary the word is in, so
one can't say for sure how many possibilities are left. :)
zizith

sirrah 6 (janc) ---> Ding! Ding! Ding! Winner!
thread 2 (carson)
zizith 2 (aruba)
Hmmm...at the point Jan guessed, there were at least 5 possible words,
including sirrah and zizith. Other possibles that I know of were highth,
inwith, and uncuth. Anyway, Jan's up!

Heh. Maybe you have SCOWL-5 too. That's exactly the list of matches I
saw there. I was only counting the ones in m-w.com - mostly those in
the SCOWL size 70 wordlist. Highth, and inwith are in the size 80
wordlist (huge) and uncuth in the size 95 wordlist (insane). SCOWL
doesn't give definitions, and I haven't the faintest idea what highth,
inwith, and uncuth mean. I didn't search a lot of dictionaries looking
for definitions.
Think I'll try a different approach on this one:

unease
highth: Variant of {Height}. [Obs.]
inwith: Within. [Obs.]
uncuth: Unknown; strange. [Obs.] -- n. A stranger. [Obs.]
(All from Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary (1913))
Obsolete words are a lot of fun, though I'm sure you'll think
they're wasted.
