A correspondent asks if the word
"honey" as a term Of endearment is pc
culiar to any section.
Well, it's long been in use in the rural
districts Of the south, but it is nearly as
old as the hills. Shakespeare used it in
"Othelo," where the Moor says to Des-
demona:
Honey. you shall he we'll desired in Cyprus
Also the poet Coogler. If we are not
mistaken, hath rhyme to this purpose:
