Here is fertile territory, here may your muse be found

Prefatory remarks by CTI

No other dictionary compares with the Webster's 1828 dictionary.

The English language has changed again and again, and in many instances has become corrupt.

"The American Dictionary of the English Language" is based upon God's written word, for Noah Webster used the Bible as the foundation for his definitions.

This standard reference tool will greatly assist students of all ages in their studies.
From American history to literature, from science to the Word of God,
this dictionary is a necessity.
For homeschoolers as well as avid Bible scholars it is easy, fast, and sophisticated.

The 1828 dictionary reflects our nation's Christian heritage, and the Christian philosophy for life, government, and education.

The following timeless words are a portion of Mr. Webster's preface to
The American Dictionary of the English Language.

I present it to my fellow citizens, not with frigid indifference,
but with my ardent wishes for their improvement and their happiness;
and for the continued increase of the wealth, the learning,
the moral and religious elevation of the character and the glory of my country.

Noah Webster, New Haven, 1828.


Quote:
FLA'GRANT, a. [L. flagrans, from flagro, to burn; Gr.]

1. Burning; ardent; eager; as flagrant desires.

2. Glowing; red; flushed.

See Sapho, at her toilet's greasy task,

Then issuing flagrant to an evening mask.

3. Red; inflamed.

The beadle's lash still flagrant on their back.

[The foregoing senses are unusual.]

4. Flaming in notice; glaring; notorious; enormous; as a flagrant crime.


DIRT, n durt.

1. Any foul or filthy substance; excrement; earth; mud; mire; dust; whatever adhering to any thing, renders it foul or unclean.

The fat closed, and the dirt came out. Judges 3.

Whose waters cast up mire and dirt. Isaiah 57.

2. Meanness; sordidness. [Not in use.]

DIRT, v.t. durt. To make foul or filthy; to soil; to bedaub; to pollute; to defile.

Whose water burst—cast mires and dirt

It was Woman who was the primeval flirt

Entrapped God's Adam in the glooms

Of toils and strifes—the female dooms

Man is tragic when entrapped

By lies of words which Truth has snapped

And shut without the tome of God

He will rise not from 'neath the sod

A dayfly flies his whole day through.
Will you land a dayfly too?

A pig weighs one eighth of a fother.
Will you be lead that way too?

A papist weeps like Magdalen.
Will you wax that maudlin too?

The Christian pollinates for God.
Will you bee a Christian too?

Jesus hives for me and you.
Let us drone for Jesus II.







DA'YFLY, n. A genus of insects that live one day only, or a very short time called Ephemera.
The species are numerous, some of which live scarcely an hour, others, several days.


PIG, n.
2. An oblong mass of unforged iron, lead or other metal.
A pig of lead is the eighth of a fother, or 250 pounds.



FOTH'ER, n. [See Food.]

A weight of lead containing eight pigs, and every pig twenty one stone and a half.
But the fother is of different weights. With the plumbers in London it is nineteen hundred and a half,
and at the mines, it is twenty two hundred and a half.



MAUD'LIN, a. [corrupted from Magdelen, who is drawn by painters with eyes swelled and red with weeping.]
Drunk; fuddled; approaching to intoxication; stupid.




INCOHE'RENT, a. [in and coherent.]
2. Wanting coherence or agreement; incongruous; inconsistent; having no dependence of one part on another;
as, the thoughts of a dreaming man, and the language of a madman, are incoherent.

Default Christian Seed - 02-10-2007, 06:02 PM

Of milt and men lost by the hand:
Onan spewed his seed to sand.
Dire pollution, for which, solution:
Death is the final devolution.




O'NANISM, n. [from Onan, in Scripture.] The crime of self-pollution.

DEVOLUTION, n. [L.]
2. Removal from one person to another; a passing or falling upon a successor.
of things unrolled or unfolded; as the evolution of ages.

Default Christian Webster - 02-10-2007, 10:08 PM

The dictionary is a book
Of life from which new Noah shook
The fruits of God and Mankind's Sins
And sorted these into right bins

As orchardists to guide his trees
To bear more fruit we bend our knees
And pray for innocence of men
For apples can't redact a sin
