cabined
Kept in quarters
Cabined means confined or enclosed in a small space, as if shut inside a cabin.
The word appears most often in literary contexts, especially in the phrase cabined, cribbed, confined from Shakespeare's Macbeth, describing a state of being hemmed in or restricted: He felt cabined by the narrow expectations of his upbringing.
