_Obeie_, _s._, 380.
_Obscure_, 380. “Leone obscurior & turpis”, Wier; _i.e._, he
appears _specie angelica_, but not white, but darker than a lion,
and filthy.
_Occupy_, 77; _——ied_, 415. See note.
_Onely_, 114. A good example of the position then commonly given to
the word in a sentence. He does not mean that this is the only work
of God, but the work of God only.
_Orient_, 297. This word was then oddly used. An orient pearl was
so called by the Romans because it was large, and large pearls
generally came from the East. So here, easterly seems to be used as
an equivalent for hot. The eastern regions being in his astronomy
nearer the sun’s rising, they were hotter,—a false explanation of a
true fact.
_Orizons_, 41. Orisons.
_Other._ Frequently here, as contemporarily, used for others.
_Overtaken_, 324. Here, surprised. But in another passage it is
deceived.
