<p style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;" class="MsoNormal">The Oxford Dictionary says
it first apperas in Middle English, from Old Norse <em>drit</em>, as you say. In this early form it had the specific
meaning of "excrement". Old English used <em>fylth</em> ("filth"), related to "foul" and I
assume to Dutch <em>vuilte</em>?</p>
