Noah Webster's 1828 American Dictionary of the English Language is regarded by many as the finest English
dictionary ever published. The dictionary is available in many forms. I made the content available here for my own purposes,
out of personal admiration for this particular dictionary.
LOR'ICATE, v.t. [L. lorico, loricatus, from lorica, a coat of mail.] 1. To plate over; to spread over, as a plate for defense. Nature hath loricated the sides of the tympanum in animals with ear-wax. 2. To cover with a crust, as a chimical vessel, for resisting fire.
