wayfarer

noun

Etymology: From Middle English weyfarere, weifarere; equivalent to way + farer.

1. A traveller, especially one on foot.

   “His head far down the hot sweet throat of her — So one tracks love, whose breath is deadlier, And lo, one springe and you are fast in hell, Fast as the gin's grip of a wayfarer.”

   “English travellers are sometimes found grumbling because the señor who keeps a wayside posada, or even a more pretentious inn in one of the towns, does not stand, hat in hand, bowing obsequiously to the wayfarer who deigns to use the accommodation provided.”
