Thesaurus of English Words and Phrases

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. The Phrases and a certain class of words which, in former edi tions, for certain reasons indicated, were transferred from the body of the work, and placed together as an appendix to the volume, - also the foreign words, alphabetically arranged, to which definitions were added, have, in the present edition, been restored to their original place in the body of the work, as arranged by the author; while, for the benefit of those only acquainted with the English language, the List of Foreign Words, with definitions (and to which additions have been made), is retained at the end of the volume.
