Word of the Day: EPICURIZE


ETYMOLOGY
from Epicurus (or epicure) + -ize 


EXAMPLE
“…See whether in our time this be not a custom among some people, that if a man were disposed to epicurize a little, he would not rather choose to fast as some hold fasting, than to feast at a sober banquet…”

From: An Exposition Upon the Prophet Jonah
By George Abbot, 1600
