| Expand abbreviations An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/Wurst | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ Wurst, f., ‘sausage, pudding, roll, pad,’ from the equiv. MidHG. and OHG. wurst (MidG. and Du. worst), f. This specifically G. word is rightly regarded as a derivative of the Aryan root wert, ‘to turn, wind’ (see werden and Wirtel); hence Wurst (base wrtti, wrtsti), lit. ‘turning.’

​ Wurz, f., ‘root, herb,’ from MidHG. and OHG. wurz, f., ‘herb, plant’ (MidHG. also ‘root’); comp. OSax. wurt, ‘herb, flower,’ AS. wyrt, E. wort, Goth. waúrts, ‘root.’ An Aryan root wṛd, wrā̆d, is indicated by Gr. ῥάδαμνος, ‘tendril, shoot’ (Gr. ῥίζα from ϝριδjα), and Lat. râdix (Gr. ῥάδιξ), with which again OIc. rôt (whence the equiv. E. root) for *wrôt- is closely connected; comp. also Nüssel. An allied Teut. root urt (from Aryan wrd) appears in Goth. *aurti-, ‘herb,’ and OHG. orzôn, ‘to plant.’ — To this is allied Würze, f., ‘spice, seasoning, wort (brewing),’ from MidHG. würze, f., ‘spice plant’; corresponding to E. wort and OSax. wurtia, ‘spice.’ —

| Expand abbreviations An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/Wurzel | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ Wurzel, f., ‘root,’ from the equiv. MidHG. wurzel, OHG. wurzala, f.; corresponding to Du. wortel. The final l is not, as in Eichel, a diminut. suffix; OHG. wurzala is rather, according to the evidence of the equiv. AS. wyrtwalu, a compound, properly wurz-walu. In OHG. the medial w was lost, as in Bürger (OHG. burgârâ), equiv. to AS. burgware (comp. further OHG. eihhorn with âcweorn). Thus too Morchel, OHG. morhala, represents *morh-walu, ModHG. Geisel, OHG. geisala, represents *geis-walu. The second component is Goth. walus, ‘staff,’ AS. walu, ‘weal, knot’; hence AS. wyrtwalu and OHG. wurzala meant lit. ‘herb stick’ (from Wurz).

| Expand abbreviations An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/Wunsch | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ Wunsch, m., ‘wish, desire,’ from MidHG. wunsch, OHG. wunsc, m., ‘wish, desire’ (MidHG. also ‘capacity for doing something extraordinary’); comp. Du. wensch, OIc. ósk (for Goth. *wunska), ‘wish.’ Hence the derivative wünschen, ‘to wish, desire, long for,’ MidHG. wünschen, OHG. wunsken, ‘to wish’; comp. Du. wenschen, AS. wŷsčęan, E. to wish. Sans. vâñchâ (for *vânskâ), ‘wish’ (with the root vâñch, ‘to wish’), is regarded as equiv. to Teut. wunskó, ‘wish.’ The skâ derivative is based on the root wen, ‘to be pleased,’ which appears in wohnen.

| Expand abbreviations An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/Wurm | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ Wurm, m., ‘worm, grub,’ from MidHG. and OHG. wurm, ‘worm, insect, serpent, dragon’; comp. Goth. waûrms, ‘serpent,’ OSax. wurm, ‘serpent,’ Du. and E. worm. The meaning of the common Teut. word varies between ‘worm’ and ‘serpent’ (comp. Lindwurm). The former occurs in the primit. allied Lat. vermis, ‘worm,’ with which Gr. ῥόμος (ῥόμοξ for ϝρομο-), ‘wood-worm,’ is related by gradation. Sans. kṛmi, ‘worm,’ Lith. kirmėlě and OIr. cruim (OSlov črŭvĭ), ‘worm,’ are not connected with this word; nor is Gr. ἕλμις, ‘maw-worm,’ related to it. —

# Appletons' Cyclopædia of American Biography/Haughery, Margaret

Edition of 1892.
​HAUGHERY, Margaret, philanthropist, b. in Baltimore, Md., early in this century; d. in New Orleans, La., in 1882. Her maiden name was Gaffney. She came to New Orleans with her husband about 1836, and after his death became a domestic at the orphan asylum. When the Sisters opened a second institution she took charge of their large dairy. But she soon associated herself with all their labors, and it was principally due to her efforts that the asylum reached a sound financial condition. As soon as the institution was out of debt she established a dairy, and entered into business on her own account. In 1866 she opened a bakery in the heart of New Orleans. She made money rapidly, but still drove about with her bread-cart, as she had done with her milk-wagon, and was known as “Margaret, the orphans' friend.” All that she made was spent on the orphans. After her death her statue was erected in New Orleans. It was unveiled on 9 July, 1884.

# Appletons' Cyclopædia of American Biography/Hatuey

Edition of 1892.
​HATUEY (ah'-tway), Haytian cacique, d. in 1512. After the conquest of Hayti by the Spaniards, he passed with many of his subjects to the eastern part of Cuba, where he established himself and ruled over the natives. Fearing for Cuba the same fate that had befallen his native country, he made preparations to resist the Spaniards, should they appear in his new dominion. Accordingly, when in 1512 Diego Velasquez de Cuellar undertook the conquest of Cuba, Hatuey opposed the invaders, but was routed and took refuge in the woods. During two months he carried on a guerilla warfare, until he was captured and condemned to be burned. While they were leading the cacique to the stake, a priest tried to describe to him the happiness and blessings he would enjoy in heaven. “Do white men go there too?” asked the Indian chief. “Yes, provided they are good,” was the answer. “Then,” replied Hatuey, “I do not wish to go where I shall meet with such people.”

# Ante-Nicene Christian Library/Epistle to St John the Apostle

THE EPISTLE OF IGNATIUS TO ST JOHN THE APOSTLE.
GNATIUS, and the brethren who are with him, to John the holy presbyter.
We are deeply grieved at thy delay in strengthening us by thy addresses and consolations. If thy absence be prolonged, it will disappoint many of us. Hasten then to come, for we believe that it is expedient. There are also many of our women here, who are desirous to see Mary [the mother] of Jesus, and wish day by day to run off from us to you, that they may meet with her, and touch those breasts of hers which nourished the Lord Jesus, and may inquire of her respecting some rather secret matters. But Salome also, [the daughter of Anna,] whom thou lovest, who stayed with her five months at Jerusalem, and some other well-known persons, relate that she is full of all graces and all virtues, after the manner of a virgin, fruitful in virtue and grace. And, as they report, she is cheerful in persecutions and afflictions, free from murmuring in the midst of penury and want, grateful to those that injure her, and rejoices when exposed to troubles: she sympathizes with the wretched and the afflicted as sharing in their affliction, and is not slow to come to their assistance. Moreover, she shines forth gloriously as contending in the fight of faith against the pernicious conflicts of vicious principles or conduct. She is the lady of our new religion and repentance, and the handmaid among the faithful of all works of piety. She is indeed devoted to the humble, and she humbles ​herself more devotedly than the devoted, and is wonderfully magnified by all, while at the same time she suffers detraction from the scribes and Pharisees. Besides these points, many relate to us numerous other things regarding her. We do not, however, go so far as believe all in every particular; nor do we mention such to thee. But, as we are informed by those who are worthy of credit, there is in Mary the mother of Jesus an angelic purity of nature allied with the nature of humanity. And such reports as these have greatly excited our emotions, and urge us eagerly to desire a sight of this (if it be lawful so to speak) heavenly prodigy and most sacred marvel. But do thou in haste comply with this our desire; and fare thee well. Amen.
