Is the Old High German form directly attested?

Unresolved in the located sources. Bailey prints *hezzen with an asterisk and reconstructs it from Middle High German and cognates, while Duden and the older Kluge entry refer to an Old High German hetzen without visibly marking the form as hypothetical.

vol. 1, data entry “*hezzen”

Stars the OHG bridge and reconstructs it comparatively.

hetzen / hatzen → *hezzen

Middle High German → Old High German · historical reconstruction

SOUND
The Middle High German verb is projected back to an Old High German weak-verb bridge; the a > e fronting and z spelling are compatible with a j-conditioned High German formation, but the exact written OHG form is disputed.
MEANING
The reconstructed bridge carries the chase or persecution value inferred from later German and comparative forms.

*hezzen → *xatjanan

Old High German → Proto-Germanic · inheritance

SOUND
The j-suffix conditions West Germanic fronting and consonant development; High German sound change and later reduction yield the projected *hezzen shape.
MEANING
A Germanic factitive or action verb associated with hostility is continued as chase, pursuit, or persecution in the High German branch.
