as intellectual culture advances, the superfluous

countries, a synonym for probity and philanthropy.
--Macaulay.
[1913 Webster]
In popular literary acceptation, and as employed in
special dictionaries of such words, synonyms are
words sufficiently alike in general signification to
be liable to be confounded, but yet so different in
special definition as to require to be
distinguished. --G. P. Marsh.
[1913 Webster]
