Etymology: Etymology tree English roister English -er English roisterer From roister + -er.

  1. One who roisters; a reveller.

    But go to—carry thy roisterers elsewhere—to the alehouse if they list, and there are crowns to pay your charges—make out the day’s madness without doing more mischief, and be wise men to-morrow—and hereafter learn to serve a good cause better than by acting like ruffians.
