-PREFACE.
-
-
-~The Etymological Dictionary of the Scottish Language~, which was
-published in the year 1808, has been so favourably received, that
-although the impression was large, a set is now rarely to be found; and
-at any rate cannot be purchased at less than double the price paid by
-Subscribers.
-
-As many, who would wish to possess the original work, cannot now be
-supplied; while it has still been out of the reach of others, not less
-interested in our national literature; the Author has been advised to
-give it to the Public in an abridged form.
-
-He has followed the same plan with that of the abridgment of Dr
-~Johnson~'s English Dictionary; in giving all the terms contained in the
-larger work, in their various significations, the names of the writers
-by whom they are used, or the titles of the works in which they occur,
-and their derivations. In one instance only has he deviated from the
-plan of the great English Lexicographer, in placing the etymons after
-the definitions. This mode is undoubtedly the most simple; as a reader,
-when looking into a Dictionary for the origin of a word with which he is
-familiar, or for the signification of one with which he is unacquainted,
-must be supposed to turn his eye first to the definition, that he may
-know whether this is the word that he looks for, or whether, in the
-passage in which it has occurred, it can bear the sense there given,
-before he thinks of examining its origin, or can form any judgment as to
-the propriety of the etymon that may be offered.
-
-While this work contains a variety of words which are not to be found in
-the quarto edition, the Author flatters himself that he does not claim
-too much in supposing, that during ten years which have elapsed since it
-was published, he has had it in his power, from many sources formerly
-unexplored, to make considerable improvements both in the explanatory
-and in the etymological department. This, he trusts, will be evident to
-any who will take the trouble to compare the one work with the other.
-
-In most instances, where he has met with new significations of the words
-explained in the larger work, he has inserted them in this, with their
-authorities. Such, indeed, is the copiousness of our vernacular
-language, that he is far from pretending that he has had it in his
-power to give a complete view of it. From the recent publication of many
-of our old acts formerly imprinted, from his own researches, and from
-the liberal communications both of friends and strangers, who have been
-anxious to render what they are pleased to consider a national work as
-complete as possible, the Author has been supplied with a great variety
-of terms which were formerly unknown to him. These he hopes to have it
-soon in his power to give to the public in an additional volume in
-quarto, in order to complete the former work. This, as far as he can
-calculate at present, will be equal in size to any of the preceding
-volumes.

-_Rules for rendering the use of this Dictionary more easy._
-
-
-Y vowel, used by our ancient writers promiscuously with _i_, being in
-fact only double _i_, and printed _ij_ in other northern languages, is
-to be sought for, not as it stands in the English alphabet, but in the
-same place with the letter _i_, throughout the work.
-
-Words not found in SH, to be sought for under SCH.
-
-Those, in like manner, not found in WH, to be sought for under QUH,
-expressing the sound of the old Gothic guttural.
-
-Words, improperly printed in our old books with _Z_, to be looked for
-under Y consonant.

-
-    AN
-    ETYMOLOGICAL
-    DICTIONARY
-    OF THE
-    SCOTTISH LANGUAGE.
-
-
-
-
-A
-
-
-The letter A has, in the Scottish language, four different sounds:
-
-1. _A_ broad, as in E. _all_, _wall_. _U_ is often added, as in _cald_,
-cold, written also _cauld_; and sometimes _w_; both as marks of the
-prolongation of the sound.
-
-2. _A_ short, in _lak_, _mak_, _tak_, S. as in _last_, _past_, E.
-
-3. _A_ open, in _dad_, _daddie_, a father, and some other words, S. as
-in E. _read_ pret., _ready_ adj.
-
-4. _A_ slender or close, in _lane_, _alane_, alone, _mane_, moan, S.
-like _face_, _place_, E. The monosyllables have generally, although not
-always, a final _e_ quiescent.
-
-
-_A_ is used in many words instead of _o_ in E.; as _ane_, _bane_,
-_lang_, _sang_, _stane_, for _one_, _bone_, _long_, _song_, _stone_. For
-the Scots preserve nearly the same orthography with the Anglo-Saxons,
-which the English have abandoned. Thus the words last mentioned were
-written in A. S. _an_, _ban_, _lang_, _sang_, _stan_. In some of the
-northern counties, as in Angus and Mearns, the sound of _ee_ or _ei_
-prevails, instead of _ai_, in various words of this formation. _Ane_,
-_bane_, _stane_, &c. are pronounced _ein_, _bein_, _stein_, after the
-manner of the Germans, who use each of these terms in the same sense.
-
-When this letter is written with an apostrophe, as _a'_, it is meant to
-intimate that the double _l_ is cut off, according to the pronunciation
-of Scotland. But this is merely of modern use.
-
-
-_A_ is sometimes prefixed to words, both in S. and old E., where it
-makes no alteration of the sense; as _abade_, delay, which has precisely
-the same meaning with _bade_. This seems to have been borrowed from the
-A. S., in which language _abidan_ and _bidan_ are perfectly synonymous,
-both simply signifying, to remain, to tarry.
-
-
-_A_, in composition, sometimes signifies _on_; as _agrufe_, on the
-_grufe_ or belly, S.; Isl. _a grufu_, cernue, prone. Johnson thinks that
-_a_, in the composition of such E. words as _aside_, _afoot_, _asleep_,
-is sometimes contracted from _at_. But these _terms_ are unquestionably
-equivalent to _on side_, _on foot_, _on sleep_; on being used, in the
-room of _a_, by ancient writers.
-
-
-_A_ is used, by our oldest writers, in the sense of _one_. The
-signification is more forcible than that of the indefinite article in
-English; for it denotes, not merely an individual, where there may be
-many, or one in particular, but one exclusively of others, in the same
-sense in which _ae_ is vulgarly used.

-ABBOT OF UNREASON, a sort of histrionic character, anciently exhibited
-in Scotland, but afterwards forbidden by Act of Parliament.
-
-  _Acts Marie._
-
-    This was one of the Christmas sports; and, as the ancient
-_Saturnalia_ levelled all distinction of ranks, the design of this
-amusement was to ridicule the solemnity of the proceedings of an Abbot,
-or other dignified clergyman. It is the same with the _Abbot of
-Misrule_, and distinguished in name only from the _Boy-Bishop_,
-characters formerly well known both in England and in France. The
-principal personage was denominated the _Abbot of Unreason_, because his
-actings were inconsistent with _reason_, and merely meant to excite
-mirth.

-BEJAN CLASS, a designation given to the Greek class in the Universities
-of St Andrew's and Aberdeen; as, till of late, in that of Edinburgh.
-Hence, the students in this class are denominated _Bejans_.
-
-    Fr. _bejaune_, a novice, an apprentice, a young beginner in any
-science, art, or trade.  Cotgr. derives _bejaune_ from _bec jaulne_,
-literally a yellow beak or bill.  Du Cange observes that L. B.
-_bejaunus_ signifies a young scholar of any university, and _bejaunium_
-the festivity that is held on his arrival. The term is thus very
-emphatic, being primarily used in relation to a bird newly hatched,
-whose beak is of a deep yellow.
-
-
-_To_ BEJAN, _v. a._ When a new shearer comes to a harvest-field, he is
-initiated by being lifted by the arms and legs, and struck down on a
-stone on his buttocks; Fife. This custom has probably had its origin in
-some of our universities. It is sometimes called _horsing_.
-
-
-BEIK, _s._ A hive of bees.
-
-V. ~Byke~.

-
-_To_ BEIK, BEKE, BEEK, _v. a._

-  _Barbour._
-
-2. To warm, to communicate heat to.
-
-  _Ramsay._
-
-3. It is often used in a neuter sense, S.
-
-  _Ywaine._
-
-    Belg. _baeker-en_ is used in the same sense; _baeker-en een kindt_,
-to warm a child.  We say, To _beik_ in the sun; so, Belg. _baekeren in
-de sonne_.  But our word is more immediately allied to the Scandinavian
-dialects; Su. G. _bak-a_, to warm.
-
-
-BEIK, _adj._ Warm.
-
-  _Bannatyne Poems._
-
-
-BEIK, _s._
-
-1. This word primarily signifying the beak or bill of a fowl, is
-"sometimes used for a man's mouth, by way of contempt;" Rudd.
-
-  _Douglas._
-
-2. It is used, as a cant word, for a person; "an auld _beik_," "a queer
-_beik_," &c. S.
-
-    Belg. _biek_, Fr. _bec_, rostrum.  It may be observed that the
-latter is metaph. applied to a person.
-
-V. ~Bejan~.
-
-
-_To_ BEIL, BEAL, _v. n._
-
-1. To suppurate, S.
-
-  _Maitland Poems._
-
-2. To swell or rankle with pain, or remorse; metaph. applied to the

-
-  _Ross._

-  _Wodrow._
-

-from Isl. _bolg-a_, intumescere.
-
-
-BEILIN, _s._ A suppuration, S.
-
-
-BEILD, BIELD, _s._
-
-1. Shelter, refuge, protection, S.

-
-2. Support, stay, means of sustenance, S.
-
-  _Douglas._
-
-3. A place of shelter; hence, applied to a house, a habitation; S.
-
-  _Morison._
-
-    A. Bor. _beild_, id.
-
-~Beilding~ also occurs, where it seems doubtful whether buildings or
-shelter be meant.
-
-  _Gawan and Gol._
-
-    Isl. _baele_ denotes both a bed or couch, and a cave, a lurking
-place; cubile, spelunca.  It is highly probable, that _baele_ is
-radically the same with Isl. _boele_, domicilium, habitatio; from
-_bo_, to build, to inhabit.
-
-
-_To_ BEILD, _v. a._
-
-1. To supply, to support.
-
-  _Wallace._
-
-2. In one passage it seems to signify, to take refuge; in a neuter
-sense.
-
-  _Gawan and Gol._
-
-    This verb, it would seem, has been formed from the noun, q. v., or
-has a common origin with Isl. _bael-a_, used to denote the act of
-causing cattle to lie down.
-
-
-BEILDY, _adj._ Affording shelter.
-
-  _Ramsay._
-
-
-BEILD, _adj._ Bold.

-BEILL, _s._ Perhaps, sorrow, care, q. _baill_.
-

-
-
-BEIN, _s._ Bone, Ang.
-
-    One is said to be _aw frae the bein_, all from the bone, when proud,
-elevated, or highly pleased; in allusion, as would seem, to the fleshy
-parts rising from the bone, when the body is swollen.

-
-BEIN, BEYNE, _adj._ ~Beinlier~.

-V. ~Bene~.
-
-

-_Vir_, _virr_, Aberd.
-
-  _Douglas._
-
-    O. E. _bire_, _byre_, _birre_.  The term, especially as used in the
-second sense, seems nearly allied to Isl. _byre_ (tempestas), Su. G.
-_boer_, the wind; which seem to acknowledge _byr-ia_, _boer-ia_,
-surgere, as their root.
-
-
-_To_ BEIR, BERE, _v. s._ To roar, to make a noise.
-
-  _Wallace._
-
-    Teut. _baeren_, _beren_, is expl. by Kilian; Fremere, sublate et
-ferociter clamare more ursorum.  The learned writer seems thus to view
-it as a derivative from _baere_, _bere_, a bear.
-
-
-BEIRD, _s._ A bard, a minstrel.
-
-V. ~Baird~.
-
-  _Douglas._
-

-G. _bolg-ia_, _bulg-ia_, to swell.
-
-
-BELD, _adj._ Bald, without hair on the head, S.
-
-V. ~Bellit~.
-
-  _Burns._
-
-    Seren. derives it from Isl. _bala_, planities.  With fully as much

-to lay flat.

-BELD, _s._ Pattern, model of perfection.

-V. ~Beelde~.
-
-
-BELD, _imperf. v._ Perhaps, took the charge of, or protected.
-
-  _Houlate._
-
-    Fr. _bail_, a guardian.  In this sense it is nearly allied to E.
-_bailed_, Fr. _bailler_, to present, to deliver up.  As, however, we
-have the word _beild_, shelter, protection, _beld_ may possibly belong
-to a verb corresponding in sense.
-

-
-
-_To_ BELE, _v. s._ "To burn, to blaze."
-
-  _Wyntown._
-
-    This, however, may mean, bellowed, roared, from A. S. _bell-an_,

-BELE, _s._ A fire, a blaze.

-
-  _Popular Ball._
-
-    Chaucer _belive_, _blive_, quickly; Gower, _blyve_, id.  Hickes
-mentions Franc. _belibe_, as signifying protinus, confestim; and Junius
-refers to Norm. Sax. _bilive_.  This is certainly the same word; from

-BELLING, _s._ The state of desiring the female; a term properly applied
-to harts.
-

-
-    In Su. G. this game is called _blind-bock_, i. e. blind goat; and in

-    I am informed, however, that the pronunciation of the term in some
-places in the west of S. is _bullwaver_; and that it is primarily
-applied to a _bull_ when going after the cow, and hence transferred to
-man, when supposed to be engaged in some amorous pursuit.
-
-    The origin of the latter part of the v. is obvious; either from E.
-_waver_ or L. B. _wayviare_, to stray.  Perhaps the allusion may be to a
-ram or other animal, roaming with a _bell_ hung round its neck.
-
-
-_To_ BELT, _v. a._
-
-1. To gird, S.
-
-Hence, in our old ballads _belted knights_ are often introduced.
-
-2. To gird, metaph. used in relation to the mind.
-
-  _Bellenden._
-
-3. To surround, to environ in a hostile manner.
-
-  _Bellenden._
-
-    Isl. _belt-a_, cingere zona.
-
-
-_To_ BELT, _v. a._ To flog, to scourge, S.
-
-
-_To_ BELT, _v. n._ To come forward with a sudden spring, S.
-
-    Isl. _bilt-a_, _bilt-ast_, signifies, to tumble headlong.
-

-
-
-BELTANE, BELTEIN, _s._ The name of a sort of festival observed on the
-first day of May, O. S.; hence used to denote the term of Whitsunday.
-
-  _Peblis to the Play._
-
-    This festival is chiefly celebrated by the cow-herds, who assemble
-by scores in the fields, to dress a dinner for themselves, of boiled
-milk and eggs.  These dishes they eat with a sort of cakes baked for the
-occasion, and having small lumps in the form of _nipples_, raised all
-over the surface.  The cake seems to have been an offering to some Deity
-in the days of Druidism.--In Ireland, Beltein is celebrated on the 21st
-June, at the time of the solstice.  There, as they make fires on the
-tops of hills, every member of the family is made to pass through the
-fire; as they reckon this ceremony necessary to ensure good fortune
-through the succeeding year.--The Gael. and Ir. word _Beal-tine_ or
-_Beil-tine_ signifies _Bel's Fire_; as composed of _Baal_ or _Belis_,
-one of the names of the sun in Gaul, and _tein_ signifying fire. Even in
-Angus a spark of fire is called a _tein_ or _teind_.
-
-
-BELTH, _s._
-
-  _Douglas._
-
-    This word may denote a whirlpool or rushing of waters.  I am
-inclined, however, to view it, either as equivalent to _belch_, only
-with a change in the termination, _metri causa_; or as signifying,
-figure, image, from A. S. _bilith_, Alem. _bilid_, _bileth_, id.
-
-
-_To_ BEMANG, _v. a._ To hurl, to injure; to overpower, S. B.
-
-  _Minstrelsy Border._
-
-
-_To_ BEME, _v. n._
-
-1. To resound, to make a noise.
-
-  _Douglas._
-
-2. To call forth by sound of trumpet.
-
-  _Gawan and Gol._
-
-    Germ. _bomm-en_, resonare; or A. S. _beam_, _bema_, tuba. It is
-evident that beme is radically the same with _bommen_, because Germ.
-_bomme_, as well as A. S. _beam_, signifies a trumpet.
-
-
-BEME, _s._ A trumpet; ~Bemys~, pl.
-
-  _Gawan and Gol._
-
-    O. E. _beem_, id.

-V. the _v._

-
-A ~But~ _and a_ ~Ben~, S.; i. e. a house containing two rooms.
-
-  _Statist. Acc._
-
-2. It is used metaph. to denote intimacy, favour, or honour. Thus it is
-said of one, who is admitted to great familiarity with another, who
-either is, or wishes to be thought his superior; _He is far ben_. "_O'er
-far ben_, too intimate or familiar," Gl. Shirr.
-
-  _Lyndsay._
-
-Leg. as in edit. 1670, _far ben_.
-
-    A. S. _binnan_, Belg. _binnen_, intus, (within); _binnen-kamer_,
-locus secretior in penetralibus domus; Kilian.  Belg. _binnen gaan_, to
-go within, S. _to gae ben_; _binnen brengen_, to carry within, S. _to

-
-
-BENE, BEIN, BEYNE, BIEN, _adj._
-
-1. Wealthy, well-provided, possessing abundance, S.
-
-  _Henrysone._
-
-    This is perhaps the most common sense of the term, S.  Thus we say,
-_A bene_ or _bein farmer_, a wealthy farmer, one who is in easy, or even
-in affluent circumstances; _a bein laird_, &c.
-
-2. Warm, genial. In this sense it is applied to a fire, S.

-
-7. Eager, new-fangled. People are said to be _bein_ upon any thing that
-they are very fond of, Loth. In this sense _bayne_ occurs in O. E.
-
-    Isl. _bein-a_ signifies to prosper, to give success to any
-undertaking.  _Bein_, as allied to this, signifies hospitable; _beine_,
-hospitality, hospitis advenae exhibita beneficentia.  G. Andr. mentions
-the v. _beina_, as signifying, hospitii beneficia praestare.  _Beini_,
-hospitality, liberality.
-
-
-BENELY, BEINLY, _adv._ In the possession of fulness, S.
-
-  _L. Scotland's Lament._
-
-
-BENE, _adv._ Well; _full bene_, full well.
-
-  _Douglas._
-
-    This word is most probably from Lat. _bene_, well.
-
-
-BENJEL, _s._ A heap, a considerable quantity; as "a _benjel_ of coals,"
-when many are laid at once on the fire, S. B. _Bensil_, however, is used
-in the same sense in the South and West of S.
-

-
-
-BENK, BINK, _s._ A bench, a seat. It seems sometimes to have denoted a
-seat of honour.

-severely scolded, S.
-
-4. _Bensil of a fire_, a strong fire, South and West of S.
-
-    It is not unlikely that the word was originally _bent-sail_, as
-alluding to a vessel driven by the force of the winds.
-
-
-_To_ BENSEL, _v. a._ To bang, or beat, Gl. Sibb. "_Bensel_, to beat or
-bang. Vox rustica, Yorksh." Gl. Grose.

-BENSHAW, BEANSHAW, _s._ A disease, apparently of horses.
-
-  _Polwart._
-

-elevatio; q. the swelling of the bone.
-
-
-BENSHIE, BENSHI, _s._ Expl. "Fairy's wife."
-
-  _Pennant._
-
-    It has been observed, that this being, who is still reverenced as
-the tutelar daemon of ancient Irish families, is of pure Celtic origin,
-and owes her title to two Gaelic words, _Ben_ and _sighean_, signifying
-the head or chief of the fairies.  But it seems rather derived from Ir.
-Gael. _ben_, _bean_ a woman, said by Obrien to be the root of the Lat.
-_Venus_, and _sighe_, a fairy or hobgoblin.
-
-
-BENT, _s._
-

-BERE, _s._ Barley.
-
-  _Wyntown._
-
-
-BERGLE, BERGELL, _s._ The wrasse, a fish, Orkn.
-
-  _Barry._
-
-    The first syllable of its name is undoubtedly from Isl. _berg_, a
-rock. Had it any resemblance to the eel, we might suppose the last from
-_aal_, q. the _rock eel_.
-
-
-BERHEDIS, _s. pl._ Heads of boars.
-
-V. ~Bere~.

-_To_ BERY, BERYSS, BERISCH, _v. a._
-
-To inter, to bury.
-
-  _Douglas._
-
-    A. S. _byrig-an_, id. Junius says that A. S. _byrig-an_ is
-literally, tumulare. It may, however, be supposed that the primitive
-idea is found in Isl. _birg-ia_, Franc. _berg-an_, to cover, to hide,
-to defend.
-
-
-BERIIS, _s._ Sepulture.
-
-    A. S. _byrigels_, sepultura. _Birielis_ is accordingly used by
-Wiclif for tombs.

-
-
-BERLE, _s._ Beryl, a precious stone.
-
-  _Houlate._
-
-    From this _s._ Doug. forms the adj. _beriall_, shining like beryl.
-
-
-BERLY, _adj._ Apparently, strong, mighty.
-
-  _Henrysone._
-
-    This word is the same, I suspect, with E. _burly_, strong. If
-_berly_ be the ancient word, either from Germ. _bar_, vir illustris; or
-from _baer_, ursus; especially as Su. G. _biorn_, id. was metaph. used
-to denote an illustrious personage.
-
-
-BERN, BERNE, _s._
-
-1. A baron.

-3. A man in general.
-
-  _Douglas._
-
-    A. S. _beorne_, princeps, homo, Benson; "a prince, a nobleman, a man
-of honour and dignity," Somner. _Bern_, as denoting a man, in an
-honourable sense, may be from A. S. _bar_, free, or Lat. _baro_, used by
-Cicero, as equivalent to a lord or peer of the realm.
-
-
-BERN, _s._ A barn, a place for laying up and threshing grain.
-
-  _Gawan and Gol._
-
-    A. S. _bern_, id.  Junius supposes that this is comp. of _bere_,

-Goth.
-
-
-BERSIS, _s._ "A species of cannon formerly much used at sea. It
-resembled the faucon, but was shorter, and of a larger calibre," Gl.

-
-BESTIAL, (_off Tre_) _s._ An engine for a siege.
-

-
-    It seems uncertain, whether this word be formed from Lat.

-
-  _King's Quair._
-
-    A. S. _bet_, Teut. _bat_, _bet_, melius, potius, magis; Alem. _bas_,
-_baz_, melior, the compar. of _bat_, bonus.  A. S. _bet-an_, emendare,
-and the other synon. verbs in the Northern languages, have been viewed
-as originating the term.  _Bet_, indeed, seems to be merely the past
-part., mended, i. e. made _better_.

-
-  _Sir Gawan and Sir Gal._
-
-    Perhaps from A. S. _befer-an_, circumdare; or as the same with

-BEVIE, (_of a fire_) _s._ A term used to denote a great fire; sometimes,

-to man and to other animals.  Both Ihre and Wachter view _bug-en_, to
-bend, as the origin; as it is by means of its joints that an animal
-bends itself.
-
-
-BEUGLE-BACKED, _adj._ Crook-backed.
-
-  _Watson._
-
-    A. S. _bug-an_, to bow; Teut. _boechel_, gibbus. Germ. _bugel_, a
-dimin. from _bug_, denoting any thing curved or circular.  It is
-undoubtedly the same word that is now pronounced _boolie-backit_, S.

-    From the subst. v. conjoined with the prep., q. what one must submit
-to for a time.

-
-  _Pitscottie._
-
-2. Besides, over and above.
-
-  _Pitscottie._
-
-3. Away from, without, without regard to, contrary to.
-
-  _Wallace._
-
-    _By_, as thus used, is sometimes directly contrasted with _be_, as
-signifying _by_ in the modern sense of the term.  This may be viewed as
-an oblique sense of _by_ as signifying _beyond_; perhaps in allusion to
-an arrow that flies wide from the mark.
-
-4. In a way of distinction from, S.
-
-  _Wallace._
-
-
-BY, _adv._ When, after; q. by the time that.

-from the use of that small piece of linen, thus denominated, which

-
-
-BYBILL, _s._ A large writing, a scroll so extensive that it may be
-compared to a book.
-
-  _Detection Q. Mary._
-
-    The word occurs in a similar sense in O. E.  As used by Chaucer,
-Tyrwhitt justly renders it "any great book." In the dark ages, when
-books were scarce, those, which would be most frequently mentioned,
-would doubtless be the _Bible_ and _Breviary_. Or, this use of the word
-may be immediately from L. B. _biblus_, a book, (Gr. {~GREEK SMALL LETTER BETA~}{~GREEK SMALL LETTER IOTA~}{~GREEK SMALL LETTER BETA~}{~GREEK SMALL LETTER LAMDA~}{~GREEK SMALL LETTER OMICRON~}{~GREEK SMALL LETTER FINAL SIGMA~}), which
-occurs in this sense from the reign of Charlemagne downwards.

-
-_To_ BICKER, BYKER, _v. a._ This _v_., as used in S., does not merely
-signify, "to fight, to skirmish, to fight off and on," as it is defined
-in E. dictionaries. It also denotes,
-
-1. The constant motion of weapons of any kind, and the rapid succession
-of strokes, in a battle or broil.

-  _Wallace._
-
-2. To fight by throwing stones; S.

-
-  _Henrysone._
-
-    This sense is common in O. E.

-

-
-_To_ BIG, BYG, _v. a._ To build; S., Cumb., Westmorel., id.
-
-  _Wallace._
-
-    This word occurs in O. E. although not very frequently.  A. S.
-_bycg-an_, Isl. _bygg-ia_, Su. G. _bygg-a_, aedificare, instruere, a
-frequentative from _bo_, id.; as it is customary with the Goths thus to
-augment monosyllables in _o_; as _sugg-a_ from _so_, a sow.

-
-
-BIGONET, _s._ A linen cap or coif.
-
-  _Ramsay._
-
-    From the same origin with E. _biggin_, "a kind of coif, or linen-cap
-for a young child;" Phillips.  Fr. _beguin_. id.
-
-
-BYGANE, BIGANE, BYGONE, _adj._
-
-1. Past; S. The latter is mentioned by Dr Johnson as "a Scotch word."
-
-  _Acts Ja. I._
-

-BYGANES, BIGONES, used as _s. pl._ denoting what is past, but properly

-4. Metaph. an association or collective body; S.
-
-  _Lyndsay._
-
-_To skail the byke_, metaph. to disperse an assembly of whatever kind;
-S.
-
-    Isl. _biik-ar_ denotes a hive, alvear; and Teut. _bie-bock_,
-_bie-buyck_, apiarium, alvearium, Kilian.  The Isl. word is probably
-from Su. G. _bygg-a_, to build, part. pa. _bygdt_; q. something prepared
-or built.  There seems to be no reason to doubt that the word, as used
-in sense 2, is the same with that denoting a habitation.  For what is a
-_byke_ or _bee-bike_, but a building or habitation of bees?
-
-
-BYK, Apparently, an errat. for _byt_, bite.
-
-  _Dunbar._
-
-
-BYKAT, BEIKAT, _s._ A male salmon; so called, when come to a certain
-age, because of the _beak_ which grows in his under jaw; Ang.
-
-
-BILBIE, _s._ Shelter, residence; Ang.
-
-    This, I apprehend, is a very ancient word. It may be either from
-Su.G. _byle_, habitaculum, and _by_, pagus, conjoined, as denoting
-residence in a village; or more simply, from _Bolby_, villa primaria;
-from _bol_, praedium, and _by_, a village. Thus _bolby_ would signify a
-village which has a _praedium_, or territory of its own, annexed to it.
-
-
-BILEFT, _pret._ Remained, abode.
-
-  _Sir Tristrem._
-
-    A. S. _belif-an_, superesse, to remain; Alem. _bilib-en_, Franc,

-
-6. Apparently used in allusion to brotherhood in arms, according to the
-ancient laws of chivalry.
-
-  _Minstrelsy Border._

-7. A young man. In this sense it is often used in the pl. _The billies_,
-or, _the young billies_, S. B.
-
-It is expl. "a stout man, a clever fellow," Gl. Shirr.
-
-8. Sometimes it signifies a boy, S. B. as synon. with _callan_.
-
-  _Ross._
-
-    It is probably allied to Su. G. Germ. _billig_, Belg. _billik_,
-equalis; as denoting those that are on a footing as to age, rank,
-relation, affection, or employment.
-
-
-BILLIT, _adj._ "Shod with iron," Rudd. _Billit ax_.
-
-  _Douglas._
-
-    This phrase is perhaps merely a circumlocution for the _bipennis_, or
-large ax.
-
-V. ~Balax~.
-
-
-BILTER, _s._ A child, Dumfr.; Isl. _pilter_, puellus.
-
-
-BIN, _s._ A mountain, S. O.
-
-  _Galloway._
-
-    From Gael. _ben_, id., Lomond _bin_, being synon. with _Benlomond_.
-
-
-BIND, BINDE, _s._
-
-1. Dimension, size; especially with respect to circumference. A barrel
-of a certain _bind_, is one of certain dimensions, S.; hence _Barrell
-bind_.
-
-  _Acts Ja. III._
-
-2. It is used more generally to denote size in any sense.
-
-  _Acts Marie._
-
-3. Metaph. to denote ability. "Aboon my _bind_" beyond my power. This is
-often applied to pecuniary ability; S.
-
-    This use of the word is evidently borrowed from the idea of _binding_ a
-vessel with hoops.
-
-
-BINDLE, _s._ The cord or rope that binds any thing, whether made of hemp
-or of straw; S.
-
-    Su. G. _bindel_, a headband, a fillet, from _bind-as_, to bind.
-Teut. _bindel_, ligamen.
-
-
-BINDWOOD, _s._ The vulgar name for ivy, S.; Hedera helix, Linn.; pron.
-_binwud_.
-
-    Denominated, perhaps, from the strong hold that it takes of a wall,
-a rock, trees, &c. q. the _binding wood_. It is probably the same which
-is written _benwood_.
-
-  _Statist. Acc._
-
-
-BING, _s._

-
-V. ~Beenge~.
-
-
-_To_ BINK, _v. a._ To press down, so as to deprive any thing of its
-proper shape. It is principally used as to shoes, when, by careless
-wearing, they are allowed to fall down in the heels; S.
-
-    O. Teut. _bangh-en_, premere, in angustum cogere. Sw. _bank-a_, to
-beat seems allied; q. to beat down.
-
-
-BINK, _s._
-
-1. A bench, a seat; S. B.
-
-  _Priests of Peblis._

-    I find that Isl. _byr_, expl. ventus ferens, is deduced from
-_ber-a_, ferre; Gl. Edd. Saem.
-
-V. ~Beir~.
-
-
-BIRD, BEIRD, BRID, BURD, _s._
-
-1. A lady, a damsel.
-
-  _Gawan and Gol._
-
-    As _bridde_ is the word used by Chaucer for bird, it is merely the
-A. S. term for pullus, pullulus.  _Bird_, as applied to a damsel,
-appears to be the common term used in a metaph. sense.
-
-2. Used, also metaph., to denote the young of quadrupeds, particularly
-of the fox.
-
-V. ~Tod's Birds~.
-
-
-BYRD, _v. imp._ It behoved, it became.
-
-  _Barbour._
-
-    A. S. _byreth_, pertinet. This imp. v. may have been formed from

-gestum facere.  Su. G. _boer-a_, debere, pret. _borde_, anciently

-
-  _Ramsay._
-
-
-BYRE, _s._ Cowhouse, S. _Byer_, id. Cumb.
-
-  _Gawan and Gol._
-
-    Perhaps allied to Franc. _buer_, a cottage; _byre_, Su. G. _byr_, a
-village; Germ. _bauer_, habitaculum, cavea; from Su. G. _bo_, _bu-a_, to
-dwell.  Or from Isl. _bu_, a cow; Gael. _bo_, id.

-
-  _Ramsay._
-
-    In Isl. it is used in the first sense; _byrl-a_, infundere, miscere
-potum.  In A. S. it occurs in sense third, _biril-ian_, _birl-ian_,
-haurire.  Hence _byrle_, a butler.  Isl. _byrlar_, id. _Birle_, O. E.
-has the same signification.

-
-
-BLAD, _s._ A portfolio, S. B.
-
-    As the E. word is comp. of Fr. _porter_, to carry, and _feuille_, a

-
-BLIND HARIE, Blind man's buff, S. _Belly-blind_, synon.
-
-  _Herd._
-
-    In the Scandinavian _Julbock_, from which this sport seems to have
-originated, the principal actor was disguised in the skin of a _buck_ or
-_goat_.  The name _Blind Harie_ might therefore arise from his rough
-attire; as he was called _blind_, in consequence of being blindfolded.
-Or it may signify, _Blind Master_, or _Lord_, in ironical language.
-
-V. ~Herie~.
-
-

-  _Wallace._
-
-    A. S. _bliths-ian_, laetari; Alem. _blid-en_, gaudere.  But perhaps
-our v. is immediately formed from the adj.
-
-
-BLITHEMEAT, _s._ The meat distributed among those who are present at the
-birth of a child, or among the rest of the family, S. pronounced
-_blyidmeat_, Ang. as the adj. itself, _blyd_, _blyid_.

-BLONK, BLOUK, _s._ A steed, a horse,
-
-  _Gawan and Gol._
-
-    Alem. _planchaz_, equus pallidus, hodie _blank_; Schilter. Thus

-
-    This is softened into _bowdin_, _bowden_, S.  Often in the _pret._

-    _Bonny_ is used in the same sense by Shakspeare, and since his time

-
-  _Journal Lond._

-fide-jussor; also, foenus; Germ. _burge_, a pledge.  Su. G. _borgen_,
-suretyship.  Ihre derives Su. G. and Isl. _borg-a_, to become surety,
-from _berg-a_, a periculo tueri, to protect from danger.  The idea is
-certainly most natural:  For what is suretyship, but warranting the
-_safety_ of any person or thing?
-
-

-
-
-BORROWGANGE, s. A state of suretyship.
-
-  _Reg. Maj._
-
-    Su. G. _edgaang_, _laggaang_, are rendered by Ihre, actus jurandi,
-from _gaa_, ire; _borrowgange_ may thus be merely the act of _going_ or

-
-BORROWING DAYS, the three last days of March, Old Stile, S.
-
-  _Complaynt S._
-
-    These days being generally stormy, our forefathers have endeavoured
-to account for this circumstance, by pretending that March _borrowed_
-them from April, that he might extend his power so much longer. Those
-who are much addicted to superstition will neither borrow nor lend on
-any of these days; lest the articles borrowed should be employed for the
-purposes of witchcraft, against the lenders. Some of the vulgar imagine,
-that these days received their designation from the conduct of the
-Israelites in _borrowing_ the property of the Egyptians.

-TRANSCRIBER'S NOTES
-
-Formatting has been used in order to make each entry easier to read, and
-an effort has been made to retain the spirit of the formatting in the
-original dictionary. Word sources are given in italics, inset by two
-spaces. Etymological information normally appears in a separate line,
-inset by four spaces.
-
-All the main entries are capitalised, but sub-entries and
-cross-references are in small capitals to distinguish them from the main
-entries. This distinction has been retained.
-
-Italics are indicated by _this_ markup.  Small capitals are indicated
-by ~this~ markup.
-
-Although the note preceding the entries for the letter 'Y' clearly
-describes the letter 'yogh', the character used throughout is {~LATIN CAPITAL LETTER EZH~} (the
-'ezh' or 'Latin long z').
-
-Numerous minor errors in punctuation have been silently corrected. There
-are also many inconsistencies in punctuation which have been difficult
-or impossible to resolve, and many undoubtedly remain. Consistency is
-not a feature of this text. This particularly applies to the
-etymologies: etymologies are sometimes included with word definitions,
-separated by a comma or semi-colon, rather than presented in a separate
-paragraph; also although many commas appear to be missing in the
-etymologies (especially in the opening sections of the dictionary), none
-have been inserted.
-
-Spelling has been left unchanged unless a definite typo has ocurred, as
-it probably reflects spelling of the early 19th century.  This includes
-variant spellings of the same word.
-
-Hyphens were commoner within compound words than they are today, and
-there is also inconsistency in their use throughout this text. There is
-also inconsistency in the hyphenation of Latin words, where hyphenation
-is sometimes, but not always, used to indicate Latin roots or noun/verb
-endings. Hyphens have been retained unless there is a clear indication
-that the word should be unhyphenated.
-
-The spelling "Lanerks[hire]" for "Lanarks[hire]" appears to be the
-accepted spelling for this period, and therefore has been left
-unchanged.
-
-Five instances of _Kings Quair_ have been corrected to _King's
-Quair_.
-
-_St_ (no period) _Androis_ is the normal spelling in this text. The
-spelling _St. Androis_ appears only once (s.v. INSPRAICH), and has
-been left unchanged.
-
-The cited source is often abbreviated, through lack of space: for
-example _Doug._ for _Douglas_, _Houl._ for _Houlate_.  These
-abbreviations have been left unchanged.
-
-There are also numerous inconsistencies in the abbreviation of recurring
-phrases, which have been left unchanged. For example _Palice of
-Honour_, _Palice Honour_, _Pal. of Hon._, _Pal. Hon._.
-
-In entries where the numbers "1." "2." "3." &c. are clearly missing,
-they have been inserted.
-
-In the original dictionary, capital E acute looks like E{~MODIFIER LETTER ACUTE ACCENT~} e.g. p. 69:
-BOUNTE{~MODIFIER LETTER ACUTE ACCENT~}, for BOUNTE. There is also A{~MODIFIER LETTER ACUTE ACCENT~} representing A (in FA{~MODIFIER LETTER ACUTE ACCENT~} and
-FORSTA{~MODIFIER LETTER ACUTE ACCENT~}). But this has to be distinguished from such phrases as "A'
-the kit" (p. 226) which is an apostrophe indicating missing letters
-(usually "ll"): "All the kit".
-
-Only two of the Greek words have accents and breathings. No changes have
-been made to the presence or absence of accents in any Greek words.
-
-In the phrase "A bursen belch or bilch" (s.v. BELCH) there is a missing
-closing quotation mark. The precise location of the missing mark is
-uncertain, and the text has therefore not been changed.
-
-The cross-reference "V. ~Get~" under "GATE, s. Jet." cannot be linked
-correctly since the only entry for "GET" has nothing to do with
-"Jet".
-
-The cross-reference to "~Skair~" for the word "UNTILL, prep. Unto" may
-be an error, as there is no obvious connection with "UNTILL".  However
-it is impossible to suggest a logical amendment.
-
-The entry "GRAVIN, GRAWYN, Interred." gives a cross-reference
-to "~Graif~" but most of the entry for ~Graif~ is missing.
-
-
-The following words exist as cross-references but do not appear in the
-Dictionary:
-
-Asterne
-
-Bad
-
-Best Aucht
-
-Boytour
-
-Brid
-
-Coles

-or charges.  If you are redistributing or providing access to a work
-with the phrase "Project Gutenberg" associated with or appearing on the

-     you already use to calculate your applicable taxes.  The fee is

-     has agreed to donate royalties under this paragraph to the
-     Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation.  Royalty payments
-     must be paid within 60 days following each date on which you
-     prepare (or are legally required to prepare) your periodic tax

-
-- You provide a full refund of any money paid by a user who notifies
-     you in writing (or by e-mail) within 30 days of receipt that s/he
-     does not agree to the terms of the full Project Gutenberg-tm
-     License.  You must require such a user to return or

-1.F.
-
-1.F.1.  Project Gutenberg volunteers and employees expend considerable
-effort to identify, do copyright research on, transcribe and proofread
-public domain works in creating the Project Gutenberg-tm
-collection.  Despite these efforts, Project Gutenberg-tm electronic

-Section  2.  Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg-tm
-
-Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of
-electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of computers
-including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers.  It exists
-because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations from
-people in all walks of life.
-
-Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the
-assistance they need are critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's
-goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will
-remain freely available for generations to come.  In 2001, the Project
-Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure
-and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations.

-Section 4.  Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg
-Literary Archive Foundation
-
-Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide
-spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of
-increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be
-freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest
-array of equipment including outdated equipment.  Many small donations
-($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt
-status with the IRS.
-
-The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
-charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
-States.  Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
-considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up
-with these requirements.  We do not solicit donations in locations
-where we have not received written confirmation of compliance.  To
-SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any
-particular state visit www.gutenberg.org/donate
-
-While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we
-have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition
-against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who
-approach us with offers to donate.
-
-International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make
-any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from
-outside the United States.  U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.
-
-Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation
-methods and addresses.  Donations are accepted in a number of other
-ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations.
-To donate, please visit:  www.gutenberg.org/donate

-Section 5.  General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
-works.
-
-Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm
-concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared
-with anyone.  For forty years, he produced and distributed Project
-Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support.
-
-Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed
-editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S.
-unless a copyright notice is included.  Thus, we do not necessarily
-keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition.
-
-Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility:
-
-     www.gutenberg.org
-
-This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm,
-including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary
-Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to
-subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.
