What does “wind” mean in this sentence:

I will that those women that shall wind me have everyone of them 8 pence, whether there be 2 or 3.

For context, this is in a women’s will during medieval time. I don’t think it means “to annoy”, but I may be wrong.

Well. It could mean "Boreas,Eurus,Notos, and Zephyrus."

It also means to breathe for example "I waited a while.. jeez- I had gotten wind back." Another example is.. "The fall that, the rock had cause me nearly winded me." The last example is "The birds couldn't have seen us or winded us."
