This Index includes archaic and obsolete words; foreign terms; Latin
quotations; and many other such entries that the average
thesaurus-user would never need, and were not included in the original
Index.

Foreign characters such as umlaut, circumflex, grave or acute may be
found to encoded using ASCII characters e.g. flamb_ee, b=ete noire. A
look-up for these codes is not provided.

Pages: There are 565 pages in this document (including this page) in
four-column format (one column in the plain text file). The 1911
Roget's Thesaurus (large print edition) begins at page 351 and ends at
page 653 (302 pages) in four-column format.

Header Page: I have included the original Roget's header page to the
Index (with its explanatory note) for completeness. However the
information it gives is not accurate for this automatically- generated
Index i.e., for words or phrases that are both an Index entry and one
of the Category names ("headings") listed beneath it, the reference
number is not printed in bold-face type.

INDEX

N.B. The numbers refer to the headings under which the words or
phrases occur. When the same word or phrase may be used in various
senses, several headings under which it, or its synonyms, will be
found, according to those meanings, are indicated by the words printed
in Italics. These words in Italics are not intended to explain the
meaning of the word or phrase to which they are annexed, but only to
assist in the required reference.

When a number or word of reference is placed within parentheses, the
actual word or phrase will not be found under the heading referred to,
although it may sometimes be useful to consult the category thus
indicated.

When the word given in the Index is itself the title or heading of the
category, the number of reference is printed in bold-face type, thus:
abode 186. (Note to readers utililizing the plain .txt file: the
formatting described here is available only in RTF or other non-plain
text versions of this eBook.)
