The Dictionary Project

Using the Office Edition Webster's II New Riverside Dictionary Revised Edition (copyright 1996 by Houghton Mifflin) I will write a spontaneous line for every word listed for however long it takes to get to the end (858 pages, over 60,000 words).

abbot

She makes garments and sells them, and stocks the abbots with belts.

(*This line came from Proverbs IX (The Ideal Wife), Verse 24. Using the method of bibliomancy, I randomly selected this line with my eyes closed and swapped the noun "merchants" with the next dictionary word, abbot.)
