If we admit that "p" in "pbren" may stand for an abbreviation, it makes sense to consider that "P" in "pmen" and "pfer" may be an abbreviation too. Otherwise the "pf" bigram is difficult to fit into the context indeed. The foremost option that ever came to my mind was "pferd" (horse), but unfortunately there's not the slightest trace of "d" after "r".

In some dialects, the "d" in "pferd" is not pronounced (the sound is soft or is kind of swallowed), so it's possible some people may have written it without the "d". But it would be a casual way to do it and I have not seen any examples of "pfer[d]" that I can remember.
