6. At what price; how dear. [Obs.]

How a score of ewes now?

Shak.

How is used in each sense, interrogatively, interjectionally, and

relatively; it is also often employed to emphasize an interrogation or

exclamation. "How are the mighty fallen!" 2 Sam. i. 27. Sometimes,

also, it is used as a noun; -- as, the how, the when, the wherefore.

Shelley.
