Another source is possible though: the " pamper" sense of coddle may be linked to the word caudle, C-A-U-D-L-E, a curative drink of yore made usually of warm ale or wine mixed with bread or gruel, eggs, sugar, and spices.

不，个可能的来源是：coddle 的“宠爱”含义可能与 caudle 这个词有关，C-A-U-D-L-E，种去的治疗饮料，通常由热麦芽酒葡萄酒与粥、鸡蛋、糖和香料混合制成。
