A Biographical Sketch of Professor March. 
 
 rRANCIS ANDREW MARCH, Sr.. was born in the village of Millbury. Mass.. October 25, 1825. In his 
 boyhood he evinced a decided taste for literature, and, his ambitions being fostered, he improved his oppor- 
 tunities so well that in 1845 he was graduated from Amherst College, v/hich in 1848 bestowed upon him 
 the degree of A. M. He entered upon the study of law, and was admitted to the bar in 1850, but ill health 
 compelled him to give up an excellent practice, whereupon he turned to his favorite studies, philosophy, language 
 and literature, in which he very soon gained permanent fame among colleges and learned persons of both Europe 
 and America. In 1870 the degree of LL.D. was conferred upon him by Princeton, and in 1871 by Amherst. 
 In 1887 Columbia honored him with the degree of L.H.D.,andin 1396 he received from Oxford, England, 
 the title of D.C.L.,and from Cambridge, England, and also from Princeton, the same year, the very distin- 
 guished degree of Litt.D. 
 
 Professor March was called to the chair of English Language and Comparative Philology of Lafayette 
 College, in 1857. which he has ever since occupied despite offers from the greatest colleges of the world. He 
 is a pioneer in the study of English Classics and English Literature, and is regarded as the first authority living 
 on derivation, spelling, definition and grammar, and as a linguist he has had no equal since thi death of Max 
 Miiller. He was elected president of the American Philological Association in 1873. and again in 1896, and has 
 served as president of the Spelling Reform Association since its organization in 1876. He succeeded James 
 Russell Lowcii as president of the Modern Language Association of America, in 1891 ; is Vice-President of the 
 New Shakspere Society, London, and an honorary member of the Philological Society, Lcndon, and L'Associ- 
 ation Fonetique de Professeurs de Langues Vivants, Paris. He is also Senator of Phi Beta Kappa, member 
 of the National Council of Education, of the American Philosophical Society, and cf the American Antiquariaa 
 Society, and Chairman of the Pennsylvania Commission on Amended Orthography. Since 1879 Prof: 
 March is Director of American Readers for the Oxford (Murray's), England, Dictionary, the greatest v 
 cf the kind ever undertaken, and is consulting editor of the Standard Dictionary. 
 
 Professor March is the* author of many educational works that are used as text books in rl. , 
 famous colleges cf Europe and America. In 1865 Harpers published his " Method cf Philoloa; 
 
 j S3 1 nc 
 
 of the English Language," and in 1369 " A Parser and Analyzer for Beginners." A year la/. . , 
 
 publishing house brought out his "Comparative Grammar of the Anglo-Saxon Language's' ^ , . 
 
 Saxon Reader." Professor March has contributed largely to magazines on the subject of r° , ' _. ... 
 
 Jfins with English 
 written numerous learned articles for leading encyclopedias. He is also editor cf "Latin y _ , 
 
 Notes," "Eusebius," "Tertullian," "Athenagoras." and other classics published by Harp^' _ .. . 
 
 /authority on English 
 pedist and Lexicographer, Professor March is justly world-famous, and as a linguist ^ 
 
 literature he is, perhaps, without a compeer.

A Foreword by Professor March 
 
 In London, 1 852, appeared o volume entitled, "Thesaurus of English Words and 
 Phrases, Classified and Arranged so as to Facilitate the Expression of Ideas and Assist in 
 Literary Composition, by Peter Mark Roget, M. D., F. R. S." It was intended to supply a 
 collection of the words and idiomatic combinations of the English language, " arranged, 
 not in alphabetical order as they are in a dictionary, but according to the ideas which they 
 express," so that any one who has an idea may here find the word or words by which it 
 may be most fitly and aptly expressed. This book has been for half a century a familiar 
 part of the machinery used by authors, preachers, lecturers and the like. The number of 
 sych persons has lately increased rapidly. Writing also fills a larger place in our schemes 
 of education. The students of our universities have little time for Socratic dialogue ; they 
 hand in essays day by day, and close their careers with original theses as heavy as articles 
 in the quarterlies. Mr. J. W. Buel, who has proved himself to be an accurate observer of 
 the needs of the book-buying public, and who has long used Roget, has thought that its 
 material may be prepared and supplemented for a wider sphere, and has accordingly set 
 on foot the preparation of the present volume. 
 
 The first shortcoming in Roget is that there are no definitions of the words or 
 explanations of the phrases. The book is really an index of words to be looked up in 
 dictionaries and cyclopedias, unless one comes to it with his mind thoroughly stored with 
 words and meanings. Besides the single words there are collected phrases, kennings, and 
 longer familiar quotations in English and foreign languages. These are all helpful to the 
 literary worker. There has been a great accumulation of them in the latest dictionaries, in 
 the Century, the Standard, and in the Oxford Dictionary. The Standard has gone farthest 
 in the collection of groups of words, giving, for example, groups of names of apples, and coins, 
 and structures, and animals. The Oxford prints the most numerous phrases, and adds 
 quotations containing them which exhibit their biographies. The time seems ripe for a 
 Thesaurus, bringing together groups of them, accompanied by concise definitions giving in 
 each group the meaning of each word as used in the group. 
 
 Then there is difficulty with the machinery for finding any particular word or phrase. 
 Early vocabularies often consist of groups arranged by their ideas. That of iElfric, a 
 
tenth century Anglo-Saxon work, begins with farmers' tools all in o heap; then come ecclesi- 
 astical matters, then political, then diseases, then wild beasts, insects, vessels, a room and its 
 contents, and so on. Nothing could be done with the materials of the Oxford Dictionary, or 
 the Century, or Standard, on any soch plan. Dictionaries are sometimes arranged according 
 to a philological system. Ettmiiller 's Anglo-Saxon Dictionary has the words classified under 
 their roots, and the roots and words arranged according to the scientific order of the sounds. 
 The beginner has to master this order of sounds, and then to guess under what root his word 
 belongs — or rather under what root Ettmiiller thinks it belongs. He has, in fact, to learn the 
 language to its depths before he can use the dictionary. 
 
 Roget's arrangement is primarily one of nameoble objects. "It is impossible we 
 should thoroughly understand the nature of the signs unless we first properly consider and 
 arrange the things signified," is his motto, taken from Home Tooke's " Diversions of 
 Purley." He classifies nameables, after the manner of the English psychologists, into matter, 
 mind (intellect, volition, affections), space and abstract relations, and divides and subdivides 
 these until he makes out an even thousand divisions, and into these he puts all the words. In 
 order to find any word it was necessary to think out in which subdivision its idea belongs. 
 This is worse than Ettmiiller. It was necessary to add a verbal index, alphabetically 
 arranged, with references to the groups by number. It is not easy, indeed, to find a word 
 after you know the number of its group, for the group may contain hundreds of words in no 
 manageable order. 
 
 The machinery of a serviceable dictionary is found in the alphabet. The invention of 
 alphabetic writing has been often pronounced the most important ever made. It is not the 
 least of its benefits to mankind that it affords the means of making knowledge accessible. 
 Every one knows the letters of the alphabet. If all thoughts are arranged under their words, 
 and the words arranged in alphabetic order, any one can find off-hand any of the million facts 
 and thoughts which are stored in the dictionary. The use of the simple alphabetic order is 
 almost as important an invention as the representation of words by single signs of their 
 elementary sounds. 
 
 The material of this Thesaurus has been brought to alphabetic order. Our publisher 
 suggested that it be called a THESAURUS DICTIONARY, believing that the word 
 "Thesaurus" will easily assume the meaning of groups, and "Dictionary" that of alphabetic 
 arrangement. 
 
 In using the THESAURUS DICTIONARY, look up any word connected with your sub- 
 ject in its alphabetic place in the vocabulary list in larger black type, exactly as in a com- 
 mon dictionary. Anger, for example, is found thus on page 45. It is there briefly defined as 
 a violent passion, and two groups to which it belongs are then mentioned in small capitals, 
 Excitability-Inexcitability and Favorite-Anger. To study the first group torn 
 to excitability-inexcitability in its alphabetical place in the general vocabulary, 
 page 372. There, under this heading, are two parallel columns, the left-hand for excita- 
 bility, the right for inexcitability, each running on for a couple of pages and bringing 
 
 . _J 
 
together some one hundred and fifty words and phrases. These are divided into noons, 
 verbs, verbal phrases, adjectives, etc., arranged in alphobetic order. The first column 
 contains all words and phrases naturally associated according to the laws of similarity, 
 contiguity and comprehension.— synonyms and the like; the second column contains a similar 
 group related to the first column according to the law of contrast,— antonyms, polar opposites, 
 and the like. By means of cross-references, other groups of associated meaning are 
 brought to the attention. 
 
 A large collection of groups like these, printed without alphabetic order and without 
 definitions, notes or comments, constitutes the Thesaurus of Roget or the Dictionnaire Ide'o- 
 logique of Robertson. It is obvious that this is really an index of words to be studied in other 
 dictionaries, unless the student be thoroughly stored beforehand with words and meanings. 
 
 An attempt has been made in this volume to give the less accomplished student 
 further help in his handling of the groups, and his use of them for original work. In 
 the first place the words and phrases are defined. The dictionaries try first to state,, 
 with exactness and clearness, the thought for which each word stands. The student of lit- 
 erature or oratory knows that putting together these dictionary definitions does not give the 
 full force of the great passages. When words are idiomatically put together, the combination 
 is not agglutinative; relations between the words appear, and the result is not a mechanical 
 compound, but chemical, or, rather, vital, especially when the melody of the voice is added. 
 
 The definition is an idea, a solid intellectual center; the emotions which have been felt 
 with it rise in memory with it, and give it an aureole, a halo, a nimbus, a glory, spheres of 
 radiance. A word is thus a living power, with an individuality embodied in its root and 
 affixes. It has a history; it has a character derived from its history. Every familiar phrase in 
 which it occurs, every great passage in literature in which it is found, every great occasion with 
 which it is associated, every honored name with which it is connected adds to its charm. 
 Every happy phrase in Gray's "Elegy in a Country Churchyard" adds to the charm 
 of every other. Every resonant word in the Declaration of Independence, or in Webster's 
 Speech for Liberty and Union, has new power, and when the great orator repeats the magic 
 words of Milton and Shakespeare he redoubles their harmonies. Every kind of favorable 
 influence combines to strengthen and beautify the moving idiom of our English Bible. 
 
 In order to aid workers in literature to perceive and enjoy these associations, the defi- 
 nitions here given are often turned so as to suggest the original thought of the word, the 
 beginning of its history, especially if it is derived from the name of some person or place worthy 
 of renown. In the group of words we have mentioned under Excitability are Quixo- 
 tism, chivalry run mad in amiable madness, as in "Don Quixote" of Cervantes; Agony, 
 like that of a wrestler in the Olympic games; Patience on a monument, defined as 
 "smiling at grief," and given its Shakespearian grace by reference to "Twelfth Night" 
 si, 4. There is Stoicism, dignifying the "Stoic of the Woods, the man without a tear," 
 in Campbell's "Gertrude of Wyoming," and there are Chaucer's "making a virtue of 
 necessity;" Inextinguishable laughter of the gods, from Homer, "Iliad I, 268"; 
 Volcanic, like the chimney of the forge of Vulcan ; the Bible's itching ears; 
 
Shakespeare's itching palm ; Mens aequa in arduis, " equanimity in difficulties," 
 the trait of Warren Hastings recorded on his portrait at Calcutta. 
 
 In the reign of Queen Anne Englishmen spoke of living in the Augustan age of the Eng- 
 lish language; they thought it had reached perfection, and they wanted a dictionary that 
 should record the words then in use and be a standard for future generations. Dr. Johnson's 
 great dictionary was widely accepted as such a standard. Authors of eminence were careful 
 not to use any word not in Johnson. Critics pounced upon every writer who strayed from the 
 standard. Slang was deadly sin. The golden age was to be kept pure from it forever. 
 There are still survivors of this period. Not long ago the " Sunday School Times " sent 
 out an inquiry about tireless and some eminent authors answered that they had thought 
 it good, but since it was not in Worcester or Webster, they would not use it. 
 
 But we have changed all that. We see that a language must change with each genera- 
 tion. If it is to live it must be supplied with a constant inflow of new words, of which a vital 
 part comes from the feeling and imagination of persons who utter themselves in slang. A 
 living language is a lake from which there is a constant flow of words to the ocean of oblivion, 
 and which has a constant supply from the fountain of popular talk. 
 
 During the last half century more new words and phrases have poured into the 
 English language than in any century before ; new arts and new sciences have swollen 
 the inflow. In this volume many new words will be found added to the old groups, 
 and a number of new groups have been gathered, chiefly words of the' expanding sciences, 
 such as biology, chemistry, and electricity. These we cordially commend to the atten- 
 tion and use of all students. 
 
 Those who may find expressions which they recognize as living slang worthy of 
 longer life, we advise to use it with some token, as Lord Bacon does, when he says, " It 
 is a doll thing to tire, and, as we say now, to jade anything too far."

PUBLISHER'S PREFACE 
 
 Of the making of hooks there is no limit, but like the great numbers of fish in the sea, it is 
 the comparatively few that arc worth the taking. The most valuable are those that give us the 
 most useful information, and such as we requently to consult. An encyclopedia is 
 
 extremely valuable, but it is not so necessary for reference as a dictionary, nor is any other book- 
 so beneficial for serving our daily needs. To livi withoul a dictionary is to be deprived of the 
 means of understanding what we read, and, very often, what we hear. It is, indeed, the indis- 
 : dilc requisite oi every home. 
 
 Professor .March's Thesaurus Dictionary is a work produced by the most fai e the 
 
 most learned, lexicographer not only of America, I e world. The service which Wei 
 
 performed, in giving us a good American Dictionary, which has sen. i large our vocabulary 
 
 and thereby the better qualify us to express our thoughl - titles his memory to un- 
 
 fading praise. But great as was Webster's work, for the benefits named, that of Professor Ma 
 
 is .1 I; rid no less imporl forward in helpful- 
 
 ness to a kno the English Language, for his dic- 
 
 tionary not only prints definitions, but the chii ^e of 
 
 EMBARRASSMENTS OF AN INADE- 
 QUATE VOCABULARY 
 
 his Thesaurus is to enable those who use it I nee to have at their command the exact words 
 
 required to definitely and forcibly express any idea they may wish to convey. What man or 
 
 m, however learned or experienced, has mastered all, or more than a small fraction, of the 
 words that make up the total of the English language? It is not difficult to imagine with what 
 veneration the world would hold a person who is abl perly use. at will, every word prii 
 
 in unabridged dictionaries. 
 
 We observe the small child trying to express its thoughts, or longings, and smile at its use of 
 
 inapt terms and its frequent repetitions. The child has as yet learned the use of only a few words, 
 
 ind this small vocabulary renders it necessary to make one word serve several meanings. The 
 
 little knowledge that the child manifests is comparative only, for we as often see men of good 
 intelli of education as well, who for lack of an adequate vocabulary halt repeal ami 
 
 stumble, and make use of words that have small relevancy, in an effort to express an idea, or describe 
 a fact or thing. 
 
 But the difficulty of always recalling, or knowing the right word needed to convey exactly our 
 thoug I >ne which even the most fluent speakers and 1 t lucid writers encounter with such 
 
 frequenc; that search for the one word particularly desired for the occasion occupies so much of 
 their time that their minds are kept upon a great strain; or, as Richard Le Gallienne has de- 
 ed, "the search often becomes something like a tragedy." Indeed, it is said that Flaubert, one 
 of the most exact of French writers, sacrificed his life in the ardent pursuit of particular w 
 
 ulty <>f selecting proper words in attempts to precisely convey our thoughts toothers 
 comes from inadequacy on the one hand, and exaggeration on the other. Ordinarily, we may be 
 able to make ourselves understood, even with a limited vocabulary, but it very frequently happens, 
 even to the most scholarly, that words are i ir uses and situations both subtle and complex, 
 
 and then it is that deficiency in word knowledge becomes a matter of intense irritation. 
 
The English language is so rich that for every fact and feeling there is an exact word ; a word 
 in shape, size, color, and sound, that absolutely and uniquely embodies the fact and feeling one 
 desires to express. In short, the "unique," or exact word, is the very philosopher's stone of litera- 
 ture, and thus it is that the search for it is a life-time pursuit, followed with persistency and a 
 sense of profound annoyance, by all who write or speak. 
 
 But the scholarly writer, who has more frequent occasion to employ unusual words, and 
 therefore has need for the larger vocabulary, finds it quite as difficult to express himself as does 
 the ordinary business man, mechanic, farmer, or pupil. Indeed, as our professions and pursuits 
 modify our educational requirements, all persons in the range between the most highly cultured 
 and the least educated, find equal difficulty in recalling, on the moment, appropriate words neces- 
 sary to express ideas with definiteness. 
 
 For more than four centuries, as several cumbersome compilations of old lexicographers 
 show, efforts have been made to produce a book that would give immediate use of a comprehensive 
 vocabulary, but all such works of dictionary-makers were failures, so complete as to be of little 
 or no more use than the crude dictionaries of the times themselves. It must be apparent that such 
 a book, for great usefulness, must not only contain an unabridged collection of related words, in 
 alphabetical arrangement, but also the definition and pronunciation of each word, so that when 
 found its proper use is at once determined, without need of referring to a dictionary for an ex- 
 planation of the meaning. All the objections to previous compilations are removed by Professor 
 F. A. March's "Thesaurus Dictionary of the English Language," and besides making his work a 
 very marvel of word gathering, he has added many relevant features which serve to justify the 
 claim that, for its purposes, no book ever before published exceeds it in practical value and real im- 
 portance. 
 
 The production of a dictionary is an enterprise that necessarily involves an enormous expendi- 
 ture of money, and the employment of the best talent obtain- 
 able. But the compilation of a Thesaurus Dictionary is a 
 superlative work of importance and complexity, which requires

 the very highest order of learning and the most critical accuracy in its several features of spelling, 
 pronunciation, concise definition, and shades of difference in the signification of related, or so-called 
 synonymous terms. These attentions are extremely necessary, as every one must appreciate, 
 but infinitely more exhaustive and critical is the labor of bringing together into close and alpha- 
 betical association, for prompt reference, all the words of the English language in their respective 
 relationships of significance. 
 
 Webster's Dictionary provides a means whereby we may quickly ascertain the meaning of 
 any word in our language. Professor March's Thesaurus gives the same knowledge, but in addition 
 thereto it enables any one to reclaim a word forgotten ; to recover and correctly use a word needed 
 to convey exactly an idea. Every day you are vexed by vain efforts to recall a word, which 
 you may kno%v exists, that will definitely, precisely, express an idea which you wish to convey. 
 Everybody is troubled in the same way. Well, by the quick aid of the Thesaurus Dictionary 
 you can promptly find the needed word, quite as easy as it is to find the definition of a given 
 word in Webster's. More than this even, this Thesaurus will suggest a word which you may re- 
 quire; to find any term it is necessary merely to refer to a simple word that has some relation, in 
 significance, to the idea sought to be conveyed, whereupon you are directed, by reference words, 
 printed in small capital letters, to the captions under which will be found all the words that 
 have any affinity to the subject in mind. This is accomplished by a practical system of 
 alphabetic grouping of all words of our language according to their relationships in meaning. 
 
 Or, to explain more lucidly, a word is taken; for example, let the word be "Good" or "Good- 
 ness," page 460. We turn to this word in its alphabetical arrangement, just as in any dictionary, 
 and there we find it given, with definition, but immediately following we find also every important 
 word in our language that has any relationship to "Goodness." And besides the words and defi- 
 nitions under the caption "Goodness" we find also the foreign phrases — all phonetically pro- 
 
nounccd — that one is liable to meet with in reading upon a subject allied to "Goodness." More- 
 over, it will be noticed that in the column directly opposite the caption word is "Badness," or the 
 antithesis of "Goodness," and under that term will be found every important word in our language 
 that is associated with evil, together also with the foreign phrases applicable thereto. 
 
 Thus it will be observed that to facilitate the search for particular words needed, this system 
 ol grouping all relati d terms is perfected !>\ printing all words alphabetically, and also by placing 
 the positive term with its negative in parallel I , in the example given, Goodness 
 
 is the caption word of one column, with all its kindred terms following, while in the opposite parallel 
 column, appears the antithetical caption, Badness, with its related terms. We will find the 
 same i ateg TV of words of related significance if we refer to any word that has affinity in meaning 
 for either "good" or "bad." 
 
 Any word followed up in the Thesaurus will serve to illustrate how this great servi 
 formed, and, for a specific example, let us take the positive and negative terms, "Faith-Mi 
 page 389, and three pages following. Here yon will find, under this caption, every word, synonym 
 and its opposite, that has any relationship, in significance, to these two terms, a list which 1 
 350 words and phrases. This list is multiplied by following the correlated divisions ui 
 such captions as " Godliness-Ung ." page 454; "Bigotry-Apostasy," page 106; " 
 
 rightness-Dishonesty," pagcii23; "1 .."page 739; "Carelessness-Skeptici 
 
 page 241; "Theology," page 1058; "Sanguineness-Hopelessness," page 933 ; 
 
 page 719, etc. Similarly there is a complete list of all kindred words pertaining to the 
 subjects: "Beauty-Ugliness," page 92; "Creation-Destruction," page 237; "Affluence-Penury," 
 page 27; "Astronomy," page 75, etc. It will be noticed also that while all associated words are 
 given alphabetically, each one is concisel) show clearly the different shades of 
 
 meaning, besides this, you will find incorporated in the extensive category of related terms, 
 
 many foreign phrases duly translated, and that the grammati- 
 cal analysis throughout is complete. The same systematic 
 j exhaustive collection of kindred ■« will be found

 if we examine other terms. 
 
 It is the man or woman who has I I command of language that is able to express an 
 
 idea with the greatest force anil clearness. Those who have a copious vocabulary are the ones 
 who speak most eloquently and write most graphically. Tin- Thesaurus Dictionary is, of course, 
 of most pronounced value to professional people, the author, journalist, lawyer, mil ublic 
 
 ikers, teachers; in short, to those who W1 
 ingly great. All men and women, as well as all 1 girls, are trying to increase their kit

 Students need the Thesaurus Dictionary more than they do ai

 to make themselves prime factors in public life; this service it performs by enlarging theirvoc; 
 by making them masters of the language, and by suggesting ideas that lie crystallize

 The man or woman who writes for the press, or who speaks in public, will find the Thesaurus 
 Dictionary an aid of inestimable value. Consultation of il bulary lists of related terms, 
 
 in the search for a word required to express exactly a s^iven idea, not only results in finding the 
 definite term desired, but also in suggesting new ideas, for it very often happens to writers that a 
 sudden calling to mind of a specially significant word leads to a fresh line of thought or may even 
 modify preconceived opinions. 
 
The English language is so rich that for every fact and feeling there is an exact word; a word 
 in shape, size, color, and sound, that absolutely and uniquely embodies the fact and feeling one 
 desires to express. In short, the "unique," or exact word, is the very philosopher's stone of litera- 
 ture, and thus it is that the search for it is a life-time pursuit, followed with persistency and a

 quire; to find any term it is necessarv merely to refer to a simple word that has some relation, in 
 significance, to the idea sought to be conveyed, whereupon you are directed, by reference words, 
 printed in small capital letters, to the captions under which will be found all the words that 
 have any affinity to the subject in mind. This is accomplished by a practical system of 
 alphabetic grouping of all words of our language according to their relationships in meaning, 
 
 1 '■ to explain more lucidly, a word is taken; for example, let the word be "Good" or "Good- 
 ness," page 460. We turn to this word in its alphabetical arrangement, just .1 in any dictionary, 
 and there we find it given, with definition, but immediately following we find also every important 
 word in our language that has any relationship to "Goodness." And besides the words and defi- 
 nitions under the caption "Goodness" we find also the foreign phrases — all phonetically pro- 
 
nounced — that one is liable to meet with in reading upon a subject allied to "Goodness." More- 
 over, it will be noticed that in the column directly opposite the caption word is "Badness," or the 
 antithesis of "Goodness," and under that term will be found every important word in our language 
 that is associated with evil, together also with the foreign phrases applicable thereto. 
 
 Thus it will be observed that to facilitate the search for particular words needed, this system 
 of grouping all related terms is perfected by printing all words alphabetically, and also by placing 
 the positive term with its negative in parallel columns. Thus, in the example given, Goodness 
 is the caption word of one column, with all its kindred terms following, while in the opposite parallel 
 column, appears the antithetical caption, Badness, with its related terms. We will find the 
 same category of words of related significance if we refer to any word that has affinity in meaning 
 for either "good" or "bad." 
 
 Any word followed up in the Thesaurus will serve to illustrate how this great service is per- 
 formed, and, for a specific example, let us take the positive and negative terms, "Faith-Mii 
 page 389, and three pages following. Here you will find, under this caption, every word, synonym 
 and its opposite, that has any relationship, in significance, to these two terms, a list which com- 
 prises 350 words and phrases. This list is multiplied by following the correlated divisions under 
 such captions as "Godliness-Ungodliness," page 454; "Bigotry-Apostasy," page 106; "Up- 
 rightness-Dishonesty," page 1 123; "Orthodoxy-Heterodoxy," page 739; "Carelessness-Skeptici 
 page 241 ; "Theology," page 1058; "Sanguineness-Hopelessness," page 933; "Ob ' e-Non-l Observ- 
 ance," page 719, etc. Similarly there is a complete list of all kindred words pertaining to the 
 subjects: "Beauty-Ugliness," page 92; "Creation-Destruction," page 237; "Affluence-Penury" 
 page 27; "Astronomy," page 75, etc. It will be noticed also that while all associated words are 
 given alphabetically, each one is concisely defined so as to show clearly the different shades of 
 meaning. Besides this, you will find incorporated in the extensive category of related terms, 
 
 many foreign phrases duly translated, and that the grammati- 
 cal analysis throughout is complete. The same systematic and 
 j exhaustive collection of kindre- ! words and phrases will be found

 if we examine other terms. 
 
 It is the man or woman who has the largest command of language that is able to express an 
 idea with the greatest force and clearness. Those who have a copious vocabulary are the ones 
 who speak most eloquently and write most graphically. The Thesaurus Dictionary is, of course, 
 of most pronounced value to professional people, the author, journalist, lawyer, minister, public 
 speakers, teachers; in short, to those who write most, but its usefulness to all classes is 
 ingly great. All men and women, as well as all boys and girls, are trying to increase their knowl- 
 edge, for the more wc know, either by study or experience, IN 1 better qualified we become to 
 deal with practical affairs of life. 
 
 Students need the Thesaurus Dictionary more than they do any other book; not becau 
 is a working dictionary, but especially becau ie il enables them to write and to speak with precision, 
 accuracy and elegance. It qualifies them, without study, to prepare essays, to handle subj 
 to make themselves prime factors in public life; this service it performs by enlarging their vocabu- 
 lary, by making them masters of the language, and by suggesting ideas that lie crystallized in 
 words. It is likewise an inspiration, encouraging to loftiest efforts, for the student who once 
 becomes imbued with the spirit of authorship is pretty certain to develop into a person of marked 
 influence and prominent importance. 
 
 The man or woman who writes for the press, or who speaks in public, will find the Thesaurus 
 Dictionary an aid of inestimable value. Consultation of its vocabulary lists of related terms, 
 in the search for a word required to express exactly a given idea, not only results in finding the 
 definite term desired, but also in suggesting new ideas, for it very often happens to writers that a 
 sudden calling to mind of a specially significant word leads to a fresh line of thought or may even 
 modify preconceived opinions. 
 
No other book is such a stimulus to the child at school, and no other confers so many distinct 
 benefits. When a pupil is required by its teacher to prepare a composition, embarrassment is great 
 because the child has few ideas and a knowledge of few words with which to express them. By 
 the aid of the Thesaurus these obstacles to composition are immediately removed, for a subject 
 being given by its teacher, the child may turn to a word related to the subject, under 
 which it will find at once every word, with definition, that appertains in anywise to the subject 
 and by so doing it acquires a copious vocabulary for its purpose, as well also many new ideas that 
 are suggested by the information thus obtained. There is no subject, whether simple, profound, 
 technical; whether it concerns the animal, the vegetable, or the mineral kingdoms; whether it 
 touches upon science, social problems, political economy, faith, doctrine, home-life, marriage, 
 affection, agriculture, mechanics, war, history, poetry, school, — in short it matters not what the sub- 
 ject may be, by consulting this Thesaurus the child obtains, almost at a glance, all the words, and 
 very much of the information, that is needed to write about it intelligently. At the same time 
 the child also learns how to construct its sentences grammatically. This acquisition of a large 
 vocabulary will influence a majority of children to aspire to authorship, and inevitably lead to 
 investigation and scholarship, an important consideration. 
 
 They are few who understand the grammar of our language. One may have an extensive 
 vocabulary and yet be unable to write or speak correctly. The Thesaurus Dictionary not only 
 affords the means of choosing the right word at the right time, and of giving complete mastery of 
 every term in our language for immediate use, but it also presents the words, names the parts of 
 
 speech, gives concise definitions in every case, prints all the 
 synonyms and their opposites, and shows all words and 
 phrases in their grammatical relationships. 
 
 MASTERY OF VOCABULARY AND 
 GRAMMAR 
 
 The English language is a rapidly growing one. Dr. Johnson's Dictionary contained nearly one 
 hundred thousand words, whereas to-day the largest dictionary has three hundred thousand words. 
 This rapid increase is due to the incorporation of slang words, progress, and discoveries in science, and 
 coinages by the ignorant no less than by the learned. The Thesaurus Dictionary, being the very 
 latest compilation, contains all the recent additions, including terms used in electricity, radiography, 
 automobiling, telephony, science, signaling, commerce, political economy, questions of the day; 
 in fact, of every acquisition, in science, society, business and government; and in giving the defini- 
 tions of terms it imparts most instructive information. 
 
 Every reader is almost constantly meeting with words or phrases of foreign speech, of which 
 neither translation nor pronunciation is given. This is a matter of intense annoyance to persons 
 who cannot translate for themselves, as the use of such interjections often destroys the sense of 
 connection in the reading. In the Thesaurus Dictionary you will find all such words and phrases, 
 in French, German, Spanish, Italian, Latin, Greek, not only fully translated but also phonetically, 
 hence most exactly pronounced. 
 
 The Thesaurus Dictionary of the English Language is presented by the publishers 
 with the sincere belief that its uniqueness will commend it less than the real practical value it 
 will be found to afford all who consult its pages. Expense has not been spared in the prepara- 
 tion, either in the compilation or mechanical production, because so great a conception as the work 
 embodies is worthy the most perfect realization.

A Key to Egyptian Characters 
 
 The Rosetta Stone contains a decree 
 that is written in three totally different 
 styles of characters, namely, hieroglyphic, 
 demotic and Greek; the first was used 
 by the priesthood and by learned Egyp- 
 tians, the second was the form of writ- 
 ing employed by the common people, 
 while the Greek was used upon this 
 occasion to communicate the decree to 
 foreigners. It was by comparing the 
 hieroglyphic and demotic, which could not 
 at the time be read, with the Greek, which 
 was well known, that Champollion dis- 
 covered the key to hieroglyphic writing. 
 
THE ROSETTA STONE. 
 
 During Napoleon's campaign in Egypt, i 700. Boussard a French officer found at Fort St. Julien. four miles from the village of 
 Rosetta, a basalt stele, which was found to contain a decree of Ptolemy V. Epiphanes in hieroglyphic, demotic and Greek, which 
 supplied the key for the decipherments of the ancient monuments of Egypt 
 
THE EVOLUTION OF WRITING 
 
 The means of communicating desires, ideas, information by one person to another, and espe- 
 cially the means of transmitting such expressions between individuals, constitute one of the most, 
 probably the very most, interesting phase of race development. Speech, no doubt, came 
 naturally, even as feeling and desire, but writing was born of necessity, or, rather, invented to 
 meet an indispensable need. The evolution of writing, from crude symbolism, and pictorial repre- 
 sentation of objects, used by the earliest peoples, is almost obtrusively, persistently, interesting to all 
 intelligent persons, for the advance of civilization, with all that it implies, is not more certainly 
 and objectively shown than by the written records graven on stone, scratched on bone, impressed 
 in bricks, painted on papyrus, and traced on scrolls, that bestrew the path of the millenniums of 
 human existence. Some of the very antique examples of writing are here exhibited, and the few 
 illustrations printed serve admirably to show the gradual advance made in the improved means 
 devised for communicating commands, recording facts, and expressing sentiments. 
 
 THE ROSETTA STONE 
 
 Nothing is left of Egyptian buildings except their graves and temples. These, by their inscrip- 
 tions, were destined to revive interest in the ancient civilization of Egypt. The knowledge of the 
 writings and speech of ancient Egypt had long ago been entirely forgotten. It was left to the 
 nineteenth century to find the key for deciphering the old Egyptian hieroglyphic writings. 
 
 France deserves especial mention as having been the first to show an interest in this study, and 
 it is to a Frenchman that we owe the first attempt at a scientific study of the subject. The capital 
 of France, too, was the first seat devoted to the pursuit of these studies under the leadership of 
 Frantjois Champollion, the founder of the science, and his successors, Emmanuel de Rouge" and 
 G. Maspero. 
 
 The era of scientific investigation of Egyptian affairs begins with Napoleon Bonaparte and 
 Francois Champollion. Leibnitz, the famous German philosopher, was the first to arouse the 
 interest of Louis XIV. by a memoir on Egypt, which Napoleon is said to have found in the royal- 
 Archives and made use of in his Egyptian expedition. He set sail on the 19th of May, 1798, 
 
 accompanied by a number of learned men. The results of the 
 
 DISCOVERY OF THE KEY TO 
 EGYPTIAN WRITING 
 
 scientific investigations were published in a work of thirty-six 
 volumes, twelve volumes of illustrations, and twenty-four of 
 text, entitled "Description de l'Egypte, ou recueil des observa- 
 tions et des recherches pendant l'expedition de 1'armee Francaise." This gave a great impetus to 
 Egyptian studies. It is safe to say that with this work, and with the investigations conducted 
 in connection with the discovery of the famous Rosetta stone during the same expedition by a 
 French engineer in 1799, begins the scientific study of a branch of learning leading with certain 
 aim to a complete explanation of Egyptian antiquity. 
 
 A great deal of matter is found concerning Egypt in ancient and mediaeval literature — Greek, 
 Christian, and Arabic, but it is of no scientific value. As far as the eighteenth century no one 
 succeeded in deciphering any of the hieroglyphic writings. Attempts were made and scholars 
 varied to such an extent that while one maintained that a certain inscription dealt with Christian 
 mysteries, another insisted that the subject matter was moral and political maxims, a third made 
 it a festal calendar, and a fourth regarded it as a treatise on the magnet and use of the compass. 
 At this point came the discovery of the Rosetta stone, now in the British Museum. 
 
This stone of dark basalt, now very badly broken at both ends, must have had the same form 
 as that most commonly employed in stones set up in honor of gods and kings as well as in memorials 
 set up in temples and graves. (A restoration of the form of the Rosetta stone in this wise is given 
 in Eduard Meyer's "Geschichte des alten Egyptens," I: page 284.) On this stone a decree of the 
 priests was published in the reign of Ptolemy Epiphanes, which announced that the Egyptian 
 priesthood resolved to thank the young king for the numerous benefits bestowed by him upon the 
 land, and especially upon the Egyptian temples, and they ordered all divine honors to be paid him 
 and his statues, which were to be set up next to those of the chief divinity in all temples of the first, 
 second and third rank. This decree was composed in hieroglyphic signs, and in the so-called 
 demotic, enchoric or epistolographic script of the common people, and a Greek translation was 
 added. That the contents of the three different writings are the same is proved from the conclusion 
 of the Greek text which clearly reads [that the decree shall be engraved on a stele of] hard stone in 
 the sacred writing, in the enchoric and Greek writing, and be set up in every temple of the first, 
 second [and third rank next to the statue of the king, the ever-living]. (The words in the above 
 passage enclosed in square brackets are broken off the stone, but they can with certainty be supplied 
 from the hieroglyphic and demotic text which can now be read.) 
 
 TRANSLATION OF THE GREEK TEXT 
 
 In the reign of the young king who received the kingdom from his father, lord of diadems, 
 greatly glorious, who has established Egypt, and pious toward the gods is superior to his enemies, 
 who has set right the life of men, lord of feasts of thirty years, like Hephaestus the great king, like 
 the Sun the great king of both the upper and lower countries, offspring of the gods Philopators, 
 whom Hephaestus approved, to whom the Sun gave victory, the living image of Zeus, son of the 
 Sun, Ptolemy the ever-living, beloved of Phtha; in the ninth year: Aetus, the son of Aetus, being 
 priest of Alexander, of the gods Soters, of the gods Adelphi, of the gods Evergetae, of the gods 
 Philopators, and of the god Epiphanes Eucharistus; the athlophorus of Berenice Evergetes being 
 Pyrrah, daughter of Philinus; the canephorus of Arsinoe Philadelphus, Areia, daughter of Diogenes; 
 the priestess of Arsinoe Philopator being Irene, daughter of Ptolemy; of the month Xandicus, the 
 fourth, but according to the Egyptians, the eighteenth of Mechir-Decree. 
 
 The chief priests and prophets, and those who enter the sanctuary for the arraying of the gods, 
 and the pterophorae, and sacred scribes, and all the other priests who were come from the temples 
 throughout the land to Memphis, into the presence of the kings, for the ceremonial of the reception, 
 by Ptolemy the ever-living, beloved of Phtha, god Epiphanes Eucharistus of the crown which he 
 
 received from his father, being gathered together in the temple 
 
 THE DECREE OF

 at Memphis on the day aforesaid, decreed, Since that King 
 Ptolemy, the ever-living, beloved of Phtha, god Epiphanes 
 Eucharistus, offspring of King Ptolemy and Queen Arsinoe, 
 gods Philopators, has in many things benefited the temples and those connected with them and 
 all those living under his sway, that being a god, born of a god, and a goddess, like Horus the son 
 of Isis and Osiris, of a liberal disposition towards the gods, he has dedicated to the temples reve- 
 nues both of money and provisions and has undergone great expenses in order to bring back 
 Egypt to quietness, and to establish religious observances; with all the means in his power he has 
 shown kindness; of the taxes and imposts existing in Egypt some he has taken away entirely, and 
 others he has lightened, that the people and all others might be in prosperity under his rule; the 
 crown debts which those in Egypt and in the rest of his kingdom owed, being very considerable, 
 he has remitted to all, and those shut up in prison for such debts, and those lying under 
 accusation for a long time, he released from the claims against them; also he commanded 
 the revenues of the temples and the contributions of provisions and money made to them 
 yearly ; and in like manner the just portions of the goods from the vineyards and gardens, and 
 what else belonged to the gods in the time of his father, should remain upon the same basis; 
 
INSCRIPTION ON THE SARCOPHAGUS OF ESMUNAZAR, 
 
 KING OF SIDON 
 
 On the 20th of February, 1S55, Mr. Peretie, Chancellor of the French Consulate at Beyrouth, Palestine, 
 having undertaken excavations on a piece of ground twenty-five minutes' walk south of Sayda, the ancient Sidon, 
 was informed that his agent had unearthed there a coffin of black basalt, near a rock against which it rested. 
 Besides the sarcophagus, a tooth, a piece of bone, and later a human jaw, were found in the rubbish. The 
 sarcophagus itself was of that Egyptian form peculiar to mummy cases, i. c, oblong, like a body wrapped 
 -up to the neck in thick bands, whose head, cut out with broad head-dress and straight plaited beard, alone remains 
 uncovered, wearing a rich broad chain in relief, at each extremity of which is a head of a sacred hawk, such as one 
 often sees on the neck of Egyptian mummies. But instead of being adorned with hieroglyphics the sarcophagus 
 discovered by Peretie bears along its whole height an inscription in twenty-two lines, written in Phoenician char- 
 acters, well preserved and written with especial care to avoid confusing letters somewhat similar in form. As in 
 most Phoenician inscriptions the words are not separated, and this continuity is the only real obstacle to a certain 
 translation. 
 
 The dimensions of the coffin are 2 m. 45 cm. by 1 m. 40 cm., (about 8 feet 2 in. by 4 feet 4 in.) and the 
 inscription which covers it occupies a square of 84 cm. on each side. Another inscription is found around the 
 head of the body at the exterior extremity of the sarcophagus which is, however, simply a reproduction of a part 
 of the first inscription. 
 
 The inscription is that of King Esmunazar of Sidon, and is the most important Phoenician inscription yet 
 found. Whereas the Phoenician inscriptions found hitherto were in the Phoenician colonies, this one belonged to 
 the mother country. Its importance lies not only in the fact that it definitely proves the Pheenician language to 
 have been almost identical with the Hebrew, but it also, more than any other, gives us an insight into the religious 
 views of the Phoenicians and the political institutions of Sidon. 
 
 It is a funeral inscription in which Esmunazar, King of Sidon, about 572 D. C, adjures all persons, under 
 pain of eternal damnation, not to disturb his "bed of rest." 
 
 TRAXSLATIOX 
 
 In the month of Bui (October), in the fourteenth year of his reign — >f King Esmunazar, King of the 
 Sidonians, son of King Tebnet, King of the Sidonians — spoke King Esmunazar, King of the Sidonians, as follows: 
 I have been taken away before my time, a small number of days old. With this my highness is at an end. I lie 
 dead in this coffin and in this grave in the place which I have built. I adjure every r lyal person and every man — 
 that he open not this bed of rest, or search in it precious things, for there lie no precious things in it; that he 
 remove not my sarcophagus, or put me into another bed of rest. Even if people induce you listen not to them; 
 for every royal person and every man who opens the lid of this coffin or who takes my coffin away or who removes 
 me who am in this coffin — may he have no funeral bed among the shades; may they be buried in no grave ; may they 
 leave after them neither sons nor posterity. May the holy gods deliver them to a violent ruler, who shall have 
 power over them to destroy them. Concerning same royal person or (private) man who opens the lid of this 
 funeral bed. or who removes this coffin; and concerning the offspring of same royal person or (private) people — 
 may they have neither root below, nor fruit above, nor form in life under the sun. Yi s, I, deserving of pity, 
 have been taken away before my time, of a limited number of days. Now my highness with this is at an end. I am 
 di ad. Namely I, Esmunazar, King of the Sidonians, son of Tebnet, King of the Sidonians, grandson of Esmu- 
 nazar, Kin;: of the Sidonians, and my mother Amaastart, Priestess of our Lady Astarte, the queen daughter of 
 King I ar, King of the Sidonians — we who have built the temples of the gods, the te oi Astarte in 
 
 Sidon, land oi the sea, and have given a dwelling to Astarte as the highest person; and it was we who have 
 built a temple lor Lsmun near the source, the spring of Idll in the mountains, and have given him a habitation 
 high on; and it was we who built (again) temples for the gods of the Sidonians in Sidon, city of the 
 
 sea — a temple of Baal Sidon and a temple of Astarte of the name of Baal. And turtle thi Lord of Kings 
 
 id Joppa — the lordly lands of grain, which lie in the field of Saron, in recompense! n agreal tribute 
 which I have offered; and we added them to the domain of the land to belong to the Sidonians forever. 
 
 1 adjure ever} royal person and every (private) man, neither to open the lid, nor to tear off the lid nor to 
 
 remove me who am in the funeral bed, nor to rei i mj sarcophagus,! it those holj gods may not 
 
 r them up, so that the sami royal person or (private) man and their posterity be destn yedfon 
 
The inscription on the sarcophagus of King Esmunazar is translated into 
 English and appears, with description of the coffin in which the royal remains were 
 found, on the accompanying tissue title-page. Observe, that while the sarcopha- 
 gus is distinctively Egyptian, the inscription is Phoenician, thus marking the 
 affinity of the two races and illustrating, in a way the evolutii in. in writing, of the 
 latter from the former. 
 
he commanded also concerning the priests that they should give nothing more for graduation fee 
 than was imposed .up to the first year in his father's reign ; he released also those of the sacred tribes 
 of the voyage yearly down to Alexandria, also he ordered the collection of naval supplies not to be 
 made; of the contribution of fine linen cloth made in the temples for the royal palace, he remitted 
 two-thirds; what had been neglected in former times he restored to proper order, taking care that 
 what was accustomed should be performed for the gods as was fitting; likewise also he allotted 
 justice to all as Hermes the twice great; he ordered also that those who returned, both of the soldiers 
 and others of the opposition in the times of the di rturbance, on coming back be kept in possession 
 of their property; he took care also that there should go out forces, of horse and foot and ships, 
 against those invading Egypt both by sea and land, undergoing great expenses, both of money and 
 provisions, that the temples and all che people of Egypt might be in safety; being present also at 
 Lycopolis in Busiris, which had been taken and fortified against a siege by a very abundant supply 
 of arms and all other munition, since for a long time the rebellion had existed among those impious 
 ones gathered there, who had done to the temples and the inhabitants of Egypt much evil, and 
 laying siege to it, he surrounded it with embankments and ditches and walls very remarkable; the 
 great rise which the Nile made in the eighth year (and it was accustomed to flood the plains), he 
 restrained at many places, securing the mouths of the canals, expending on these of money no 
 small amount, and stationing horse and foot soldiers to guard them; in a little time he took the 
 city by storm, and all the impious in it he destroyed as Hermes, and Horus the son of Isis and 
 
 Osiris, overpowered those who in the same parts had revolted 
 
 HOW HE SUBDUED THE 
 ENEMIES OF EGYPT 
 
 in former times; the ringleaders also of the revoltcrs in his 
 father's reign who had troubled the country and outraged the 
 temples, being at Memphis the avenger of his father and of 
 his own crown, all these he punished justly, at the time when he was there for his performance 
 of the rites proper for the reception of the crown: he remitted also the debts owed in the 
 temples to the palace up to the eighth year, amounting to no small quantity of provisions 
 and money; likewise also the value of the linen cloths due which had not been given in to 
 the palace; and, of those which had been given in, the replacement of such as differed from the 
 pattern up to the same date; he released the temples also of the appointed artaba per aroura 
 of the sacred land, and in like manner as to the ceramium per aroura of the vineyards ; to Apis 
 and Mneris he made many gifts, as also to the other sacred animals of Egypt, having much 
 better care than the kings before him for what belonged to them in all respects, and giving bounti- 
 fully and nobly what was proper for their funerals with the dues for the support of their respective 
 worships with sacrifices and panagyries and the other usual rites. The prerogatives of the temples 
 and of Egypt he has carefully kept upon the same basis agreeably to the laws; he has adorned the 
 Apieum with costly works expending upon it of gold and silver and precious stones no small amount, 
 and has founded temples and shrines and altars; what had need of repair he restored, having the 
 disposition of a beneficent god in what concerns the divinity; learning by means of additional 
 enquiry their state he has restored the most honored of the temples; in return for which the gods 
 have given him health, victory, strength, and all other good things, the kingdom being assured to 
 him and his children to all time. 
 
 With good fortune: It has seemed good to the priests of all the temples of the land to decree 
 to augment greatly all honors now paid to the ever-living King Ptolemy, beloved of Phtha, god 
 Epiphanes Eucharistus, and likewise those of his ancestors the gods Philopators and of his ancestors 
 gods Evergetae and of the gods Adelphi, and those of the gods Soters, to erect of the ever-living 
 King Ptolemy, god Epiphanes Eucharistus, an image in each temple in the most conspicuous place; 
 which shall be entitled "Ptolemy the defender of Egypt," near which shall stand the god to whom 
 the temple belongs, presenting to him a conquering weapon, which arrangements will be made in 
 the manner of the Egyptians; also for the priests to perform a service before these images three 
 times each day, and put on them the sacred adorning, and perform the other accustomed rites, 
 as to the other gods in the panagyries of Egypt; to set up for King Ptolemy, god Epiphanes Eucha- 
 
ristus, offspring of King Ptolemy and Queen Arsinoe, gods Philopators, a statue and a shrine, both 
 gilded in each of the temples, and to place this in the sanctuaries with the other shrines, and in the 
 great panagyries in which processions of the shrines take place, for the shrine of the god Epiphanes 
 Eucharistus to go out with them; that it may be well marked both now and for future time, to place 
 upon the shrine the ten golden ornaments of the king to which shall be affixed an asp, similar to 
 the adorning of asp-like ornaments which are upon the other shrines in the midst of which shall be 
 the crown called "Schent" which he wore when he entered the temple at Memphis for the perform- 
 ance in it of the rites proper for the assumption of the crown; to place upon the platform of the 
 ornaments about the aforesaid crown ten golden phylacteries on which shall be written "this is 
 
 (the shrine) of the king who made illustrious both the upper

 country and the lower;" and since the thirtieth of Mesore in 
 which the birthday festivities of the king are celebrated, and 
 in like manner the seventeenth of Mechir, in which he received 
 the kingdom from his father, have been named after him in 
 the temples, which certainly are harbingers of much good to all, to celebrate these days (the 
 seventeenth and thirtieth) feasts and panagyries in the temples of Egypt monthly, and to per- 
 form in them sacrifices and libations and what else is proper, as in the other panagyries; to 
 give the usual public notices to all for what is to be offered in the temples; to celebrate a feast and 
 a panagyry to the ever-living and beloved of Phtha, King Ptolemy, god Epiphanes Eucharistus, 
 each year in the temples throughout the land, from the new moon of the Thoth for five days, in 
 which also they shall wear garlands, performing sacrifices and libations and what else is proper; 
 to call the priests of the temples of the land, also priests of the god Epiphanes Eucharistus, in addi- 
 tion to the other names which they had from the gods whom they serve, and to inscribe on all their 
 documents and on the seal-rings on their hands their priesthood to him; that it be lawful to the 
 rest, private person to celebrate the feast and set up the aforesaid shrine having it in their houses, 
 performing what is right in the feasts both monthly and yearly, in order that it may be known why 
 the people of Egypt magnify and honor the god Epiphanes Eucharistus the king as is just, to write 
 this decree upon a column of hard stone in sacred and enchorial and Greek letters and place it in 
 each of the temples of the first, second and third order near the image of the ever-living king. 
 
 GUDEA, KING OF SHIRPURLA 
 
 The statues of Gudea belong to the monuments of Telloh discovered by excavations conducted 
 under the superintendence of Ernest de Sarzec, French consul at Bagdad, 1877-1882. It is of 
 Gudea that the larger and more important part of the monuments of Telloh preserve the memory: 
 eight statues, two large cylinders of clay, and hundreds of fragments or small texts — now in the 
 Louvre. Gudea was king of Shirpurla, the modern Telloh, in Southern Babylonia, about B. C. 3 100. 
 This statue — one of eight — is designated B, and is covered all around with cuneiform inscriptions. 
 The plate represents the right profile of the statue, with part of the inscription. The translation 
 of the whole is as follows :

 TRANSLATION OF THE 
 CUNEIFORM INSCRIPTION 
 
A Very Ancient Cuneiform 
 Inscription 
 
 Next to the hieroglyphic characters 
 peculiar to Egypt, the cuneiform style of 
 writing is probably the most ancient, of 
 which any decipherable specimens have 
 been found. The inscription on the statue 
 of Gudea, one of the Kings of Southern 
 Babylonia, is a splendid example of the 
 characters used by the ancient and power- 
 ful Babylonians, who arrived at a consider- 
 able state of civilization and literary 
 culture more than five thousand years ago, 
 which carries us back, according to Bible 
 chronologv, to almost the time of Noah. 
 
STATUE OF GUDEA. KING OF SHIRPURLA. 
 
 Gudea was a king of Southern Babylonia, about B.C. 3100, and the cuneiform inscription on his statue is there- 
 lore one of the oldest that has been discovered. The inscription, which is of great length, appeals to the gods of 
 Babylonia, as witnesses to the justice of Gudea's rulership. 
 
THE TEMPLES CONSTRUCTED 
 BY GUDEA 
 
 favorable eye by the goddess Nina, dowered with power by the god Nindara, covered with renown 
 by the goddess Bau, the offspring of the goddess Gutumdug, dowered with sovereignty and the 
 sceptre supreme by the god Galalim, proclaimed afar among living creatures by the god Dunshaga, 
 whose primacy has been firmly founded by the god Xingish-zida his god. After that the god Nin- 
 girsu had turned towards his city a favorable gaze (and) Gudea had chosen as the faithful shepherd 
 of the country (and) among the divisions (?) of men had established his power, then he purified the 
 city and cleansed it ; he has laid the foundations (of a temple) and deposited the foundation-cylinder. 
 The adorers of the demons (?), the evokers of spirits (?), the necromancers (?), the prophetesses 
 of divine decrees (?) he has banished from the city. Whoever has not departed obediently, has 
 been expelled perforce by the warriors. The temple of the god Nin-girsu in all respects in a pure 
 place he has constructed. No tomb has been destroyed (?), no sepulchral urn has been broken (?), 
 no son has ill-treated his mother. The ministers, the judges, the doctors, the chiefs, during the 
 execution of this work have worn garments of ....(?). During all the time (of its construction) 
 in the cemetery of the city no ditch lias been excavated (?); no corpse has been interred (?). The 
 Kalu (a class of priests) has performed his funeral music or uttered his lamentations; the female 
 mourner has not caused her lamentations to be heard. On the territory of Shirpurla a man at 
 variance (with his neighbor) to the place of oath (court of justice) has taken no one; a brigand 
 has entered the house of no one. For the god Nin-girsu his king (Gudea) has made the dedicatory 
 
 inscriptions ( ?) ; his temple Eninnu which illuminates the 
 darkness (?), he has constructed and reinstated. In the 
 interior (of the temple) his favorite Gigunu of cedar wood he 
 has constructed for him. After that the temple of the god 
 Nin-girsu he has had constructed, the god Nin-girsu, the king beloved by him, from the sea of 
 the Highlands (Elam) to the lower sea has forcefully opened (the ways) for him. In Amanum, 
 the mountain of Cedars, [joists] of cedar, whose [length] was seventy spans, [and joists] of cedar 
 whose [length was] 50 spans, [and joists] of box (?) whose length was 25 spans, he has caused to 
 be cut; from this mountain he has caused them to be brought. The .... he has made. 
 The .... he has made. The .... he has made. The .... he has made. As for the 
 cedars- (some) to form great gates he has employed; with brilliant ornaments he has 
 enriched them ( ?) and in the temple Eninnu he has placed them. (Others) in his sanctuary 
 E-magh-ki-a-sig-de-da he has used as beams. Near the city of Ursu, in the mountains of Ibla 
 joists of Zabanum trees, of great shaku trees, of tulubum trees, and of gin trees, he has caused to 
 be cut; in the temple of Eninnu he has caused them to be used as beams. From Shamanum in 
 the mountains of Menua, from Susalla (?) in the mountains of Martu, nagal stones he has caused 
 to be brought; in slabs he has caused them to be cut; the Holy of Holies in the temple Eninnu, 
 he has constructed of them. From Tidanum in the mountains of Martu shirgal-ghabbia stones 
 he has caused to be conveyed; in the form of urpadda he has caused them to be cut; to (receive) 
 the bars of the gates in the temple he has arranged them. From the country of Kagal-adda-ki 
 in the mountains of Kimash I caused copper to be taken, to make the arm (?) from which one 
 escapes not he has employed it. From the country of Melughgha kala trees he has imported; he 
 has caused to be made. From Kilzanim he has imported; to make the arm (?).... he has 
 employed it. Gold-dust from the mountains of Ghaghum he has imported; for the fabrication 
 of the arm (?) . . . he has utilized it. Gold-dust from the mountains of Melughgha he has im- 
 ported, to make the Emartu he has employed it. Lidri (?) he has imported. From the country 
 of Gubin, the land of the ghaluku trees, ghaluku wood he has imported; to make pillars he has 
 employed it. From the country of Madga in the mountains of the river Gurruda bitumen (?) 
 he has imported; the platform of the temple Eninnu he has constructed. Imghaum he has im- 
 ported. From the mountains of Barsip nalua stones in large boats he caused to be brought; the 
 foundation of the temple Eninnu he has encircled with them. By arms the city of Anshan in 
 the country of Elam he has conquered; its spoils to the god Nin-girsu in the temple Eninnu he 
 has consecrated. Gudea, the patesi of Shirpurla, after that the temple Eninnu to the god Nin- 
 
girsu he had constructed, has built an edifice: a pillared (?) temple no patesi for the god Nin-girsu 
 had constructed; he has constructed it for him. He has written there his name; he has made 
 dedicatory inscriptions (?). The orders of the mouth of the god Nin-girsu he has faithfully exe- 
 cuted. From the mountains of the country of Magan a hard stone he has imported. For his 
 statue he has caused it to be cut. " O my king, whose temple I have built, may life be my recom- 
 pense!" By this name he has named (the statue), and in the temple Eninnu he has erected it. 
 Gudea unto the statue has given command: "To the statue of my king speak!" After that the 
 temple Eninnu, his favorite temple I had constructed, I have remitted penalties, I have given 
 presents. During seven days obeisance has not been exacted; the female slave has been made 
 
 the equal of her mistress; the male slave has been made

 the equal of his master; in my city the chief of his subject 
 has been made the equal. All that is evil from this temple 
 I have removed. Over the commands of the goddess Nina 
 and the god Nin-girsu I have carefully watched. A fault (?) the rich man has not com- 
 mitted; all that he has desired (?) the strong man has not done. The house where there 
 was no son, it is its daughter, who new offerings (?) has consecrated; for the statue of 
 the god before the mouth she has placed them. Of this statue, neither in silver nor in 
 alabaster nor in copper nor in tin nor in bronze let any one undertake the execution ! Let 
 it be of hard stone! let a sacristy be established, and of all that shall be brought there let nothing 
 be destroyed! The statue which is before thee, O god Nin-girsu, the statue of Gudea, the patesi 
 of Shirpurla, who the temple Eninnu of the god Nin-girsu has constructed, whosoever from the 
 temple Eninnu shall remove (or) its inscription shall efface; whosoever shall break it, on the fortu- 
 nate day of the commencement of the year, whoever in the place of my god, his god — and it is 
 Nin-girsu who is my king — in the country shall invoke; (whoever) my judgments shall transgress, 
 my gifts shall revoke; whoever in the recitation of my prayers shall suppress my name and insert 
 his own ; (whoever) of the Holy of Holies of the god Nin-girsu, my king, shall abandon the service ( ?) 
 and shall not keep it (ever) before his eyes; — from the most distant days, of all men of noble race; 
 of the patesis of Shirpurla who the temple Eninnu of the god Nin-girsu, my king have constructed, 
 and who have made dedicatory inscriptions (?), the words of their mouth let no one change nor 
 trangress their judgments! Of Gudea, the patesi of Shirpurla, whoever shall change his words 
 or transgress his judgments, may the god Anna, may the god Ellilla, may the goddess Nin-gharsag, 
 may the god Enki, whose word is unchangeable; may the god Enzu, whose name none pronounces; 
 
 may the god Nin-girsu, the king of weapons; may the goddess

 Like a wild bull may he be felled in the plenitude of his strength! As for his throne, may those 
 even whom he has reduced to captivity overthrow it in the dust! To efface its traces (?), even 
 of its memory (?), may they apply their care! his name, in the temple of his god may they efface 
 from the tablets ! May his god for the ruin of the country have no look (of pity) ! May he ravage 
 it with rains from heaven ! May he ravage it with the waters of the earth ! May he become a 
 man without a name! May his princely race be reduced to subjection! May this man, like every 
 man who has acted evilly towards his chief, afar, under the vault of heaven, in no city whatsoever 
 find a habitation! Of the champion of the gods, the Lord Nin-girsu, the greatness may the people 
 proclaim ! 
 
HITTITE INSCRIPTIONS 
 
 "A considerable number of Hittite monuments have been found, which heip us to a clearer understanding 
 of the history of this people than we could get from Biblical, Egyptian, and cuneiform dataalone. At Carchemish 
 and Hamath have been unearthed remains of sculptures accompanied by inscriptions, and elsewhere in this 
 region, as at Zenjirli, there are abundant traces of Hittite art. Thanks to the researches of Jensen, it may now 
 be regarded as certain that the inscriptions cover the period 1200-S00 B. C. It is fair to presume that the lan- 
 guage of all the so-called Hittite inscriptions is the same, although it may be added that several styles of Hittite 
 characters may be distinguished, some being pictorial, others branching off into conventional forms, with a strong 
 tendency towards becoming linear. The decipherment of the Hittite inscriptions which would throw so much 
 needed light on the ethnic problems is now being vigorously prosecuted. After several attempts on the part of 
 Sayce, Peiser, and Halevy, which constituted an opening wedge, Jensen has recently struck a new path which gives 
 promise of leading, ere long, to a satisfactory solution of the mystery. He has identified ideographs and sign 
 groups for the names of countries and gods, some of which appear to be established beyond reasonable doubt. 
 So far as Jensen's decipherment has gone, the inscriptions — some thirty in all — contain little beyond the names 
 and titles of rulers, lands, and gods, with brief indication of conquests. The Hittite script appears to have been 
 taken over from the Egyptian hieroglyphics, though it seems also certain that it contains elements which are 
 either original or derived from some source that is still unknown. " 
 
 The plate represents one of the stones found in Jerabis, or Carchemish. These stones are now in the British 
 Museum, and we are indebted for them to George Smith and Consul Henderson. They are among the best 
 specimens of Hittite inscriptions yet found. According to Jensen, their date is between 950 and 750 B. C. There 
 are four columns of inscription on the stone, only two of which are represented in the fac-simile. ■ 
 
 Following is an attempt made by Peter Jensen to decipher the inscription: 
 
 I am -[ ]-z-s (name) of Carchemish the powerful, the king, the king, the P, the prince of the land, the priest- 
 king (?) the .... z-T one of the land, of Carchemish, the powerful, the king . . . . , one of the land 
 
 of Carchemish, the powerful, of the king of a .... a ... . son . . . 
 
 HIMYARITIC INSCRIPTION OF HADAKAN 
 
 Himyaritic or Sabaean is a name applied to the former people of southwestern Arabia, or Yemen, and to the 
 remains of their civilization, consisting of extensive ruins, with numerous inscriptions (the oldest from long 
 before our era). The language belongs to the Arabic division of the West Semitic group, and has its nearest 
 relative in the idiom of the central and north Arabian Bedouins, raised to a literary language by Mohammed, 
 but especially is the Ethiopic nearly related to it. 
 
 The present inscription was found by Eduard Glaser (who made four journeys to the East in the years 1SS5-S6, 
 1887-S8, and 1892-94 [?] and brought back over a thousand inscriptions) in Yemen, South Arabia, in a village 
 called Hadakan, near an estate now called Bait Mukbil Dugaish. The stone is kept in the royal museum of 
 Berlin. It is 92 cm. (originally 94 cm., about 2 feet 6 in.) wide and 41 cm. high (about 14 in). When found it 
 was walled into a recent building, and when taken out the left edge and lower part were gone. Eight lines are 
 almost complete and a few obliterated traces of the ninth. 
 
 It is a dedicatorv inscription in which the devotee declares that he dedicates to Talab his own person and 
 his children and all his possessions. The reason for his action was probably contained in that part of the inscrip- 
 tion which is missing.

 SPECIMEN OF HITTITE PICTURE WRITING. 
 
 The Hittite race, or tribe, has been an unsolved problem with 
 ethnologists — whence they came, whither departed, — the most we 
 have been able to learn being derived from the Scriptures. The 
 illustration above shows part of a monument found in Arabia, par- 
 ticularly described and the inscription deciphered in the accom- 
 panying tissue title-page. 
 
 HIMVARITIC INSCRIPTIONS. 
 
 The example of Himyaritic inscription exhibited above is of 
 particular interest to students of language development in that it 
 represents, apparently, a transition from Ethiopic to Asiatic charac- 
 ter writing, probably five hundred or more years before the 
 Christian era. See description and decipherment on the tissue 
 title-page herewith.

HOW TO USE THE THESAURUS

 A KEY TO PRONUNCIATION 
 
HOW TO USE THE THESAURUS. 
 
 To the vast majority, the use of this Thesaurus Dictionary of the English Language presents no more- 
 difficulties, for lack of understanding the plan adopted, than does any dictionary; but as its purpose is not 
 limited to defining words, its wider sphere and usefulness being to suggest particular words or phrases as 
 they may be required to definitely express a given idea, a brief explanation of how its fullest benefits may 
 be obtained is appropriate. 
 
 All vocabulary words are printed in brevier black face type; all definitions thereof appear in brevier 
 lower case Roman. The reference words are printed in brevier small caps, under which heads the person 
 consulting the dictionary must look to find any particular word desired. Thus, for example, take any word 
 in the vocabulary, there will be found immediately following the definition, words printed in small caps, 
 which are the reference words. These words must be looked up in their alphabetical position in the vocabulary, 
 and under them will be found groups containing the word examined and words of related significance Phrases 
 and idioms are printed in black face type; foreign phrases appear in brevier italics, and their phonetic pronun- 
 ciation, in parentheses, are in brevier lower case Roman. The foreign languages are indicated thus [F.L 
 meaning French; [It.], Italian; [G.], German; [Sp.], Spanish; [L.], Latin; [Gr.], Greek. Those translations which 
 appear in the vocabulary proper are printed in brevier lower case Roman. Captions, to which the references 
 direct, appear in capital letters, with positive and negative terms compounded, under which appear all asso- 
 ciated words, printed in nonpareil black face type, and the definitions in nonpareil lower case Roman. The 
 analysis of words, and their grammatical relationships, are printed under in nonpareil small caps. Captions, 
 denoting parts of speech and their relationship, are in italics. By observing these explanations no difficulty 
 will ever be encountered in using the Thesaurus, or in obtaining the information which it is intended to supply.

 A KEY TO PRONUNCIATION. 
 
 The English words printed in this Thesaurus are easily pronounced by any one giving attention to the accent- 
 marks at the end of syllables. The single accent mark — -thus, ' — indicates the primary inflection, or the syllable 
 upon which the greater stress must be laid. The double accent mark — thus, " — -shows the secondary inflection, 
 directing that some stress shall be laid, but less than that indicated by the primary accent. 
 
 The pronunciation of all foreign phrases is found in parentheses following. Note well these indications. 
 Wherever the phonetic a is found, it is to be pronounced as in sofa, partake; where the phonetic v occurs, 
 it indicates such a sound as u in cup. The diphthong ai is sounded as ai in aisle and i in pz'ne; au as ou in the 
 word howse. When iu appears, it equals the sound in mute. The phonetic letter H equals the German sound 
 in the word ach; the inverted period placed beside the letter n, in any French word, gives it a broad, nasal 
 sound. Thus, bon' is pronounced somewhat like ong, in song, except that the g is silent; zh should generally be 
 sounded as an aspirate, as g in mirage (mirazh'). 
 
 Respellings for pronunciation have been given for all foreign words and phrases at their vocabulary places 
 in this dictionary. 
 
 The Latin words have been pronounced according to the English method. 
 
 English words have been divided into syllables and the accented syllables marked. 
 
 In the respellings the ordinary Roman types have been used so far as possible. 
 
 Instead of using diacritics for peculiar sounds of a and u, the standard types of the American Philological' 
 Association have been adopted. 
 
 The letters b, d, f, h. j, k, 1, m, n, o, p, q, r, t, v, w, have been used with their ordinary normal values. 
 
 The following letters have been used with values as indicated :
