Conspisillum est locus ad conspiciendum totus, a tote hulle." MED. GR. "Totehyll, montaignette." PALSG. This term, of such frequent occurrence in local names in many parts of England, has been derived from Ang.-Sax. "Totian, eminere tanquam cornu in fronte." See Dr. Bosworth's A. Saxon Dict. We find, however, the verb to Tote inseveral old writers, signifying to look out, to watch, to inspect narrowly, to look in a mirror, &c. See P. Ploughman, Spenser, Skelton, Tusser, &c. Thus in Havelok, 2105, "He stod, and totede in at a bord;" Grafton, 577, describes a "totyng hole" in a tower, through which the Earl of Salisbury, looking out, was slain by shot from a "goon," at the siege of Orleans in 1427. Gouldman gives the verb "to toot," as synonymous with to look. Mr. Hartshorne, in his Salopia Antiqua, enumerates everal of the nume∣rous instances of the name Toothill, Castle Tute, Fairy Toote,&c. and the list might be largely extended. The term seems to denote a look-out or watch tower. In the version of Vegecius, Roy. MS. 18 A. XII. f. 106, we read that "Agger is a Toothulle made of longe poles pighte vp righte and wounde about with twigges as an hegge, and fillede vp with erthe and stones, on whiche men mowe stonde and shete and caste to the walls." In the earlier Wicl. version, 2 Kings, V. v. 7 is thus rendered; "Forsothe Dauid toke the tote hil Syon (arcem Sion) that is, the citee of Dauid;" and v. 9, "Dauid dwellide in the tote hill" (in arce) in the later version "Tour of Syon." Again, Isai. XXI. 8, "And he criede as a leoun vp on the toothil (speculam) of the Lord I am stondende contynuelly by day, and vp on my warde I am stondende alle nyȝtus;" in the later version, "on the totyng place of the Lord." Sir John Maundevile gives a curious account of the gardens and pleasaunce of the king of an Island of India, and of "a litylle Toothille with toures," &c. where he was wont to take the air and disport.

- TRAUAS. [A travas or travers is explained by Sir H. Nicolas in his Glossarial Index, Privy P. Exp. of Eliz. of York, p. 259, as a kind of screen with curtains for privacy, used in cha∣pels, halls, and other large chambers; he cites several instances of the use of the term in household accounts and other documents, to which the following may be added. In the inventory of effects of henry V. in 1423, we find "j. travers du satin vermaille, pris viij. li. ovec ij. quisshons de velvet vermaill," &c. probably for the king's chapel; also a "tra∣vers" for a bed: see Rot. Parl. vol. iv. pp. 227, 230. Chaucer, in the Marchantes Tale, it will be remembered, thus uses the term in the narrative of the nuptial festivity—"Men dranken, and the Travers drawe anon." In a Survey of the manor of Hawsted, in 1581, it is stated that Sir William Drury possessed "Scitum manerii, &c. uno le mote circum∣jacente, uno le traves ante portam messuagii predicti, et unam magnam curiam undique bene edificatam." Cullum's Hawsted, p. 142. Sir T. More was so greatly in favor during 20 years of his life at the court of Henry VIII. that, as Roper says, "a good part thearof used the kinge uppon holie daies, when he had donne his owne devotions, to sende for him into his traverse, and theare, sometimes in matters of Astronomy, Geometry, Divi∣nity, and suche other faculties, and sometimes of his worldly affaires, to sit and converse with him." In this and other instances a traverse seems to have been a kind of state pew, or closet. So likewise we read that when Queen Elizabeth visited Cambridge in 1564, on the south side of the chapel at King's College was hung a rich Travas of crimson velvet for the queen's majesty; and when she entered the chapel, desiring to pray privately, she "went into her Travys, under a canopy." Le Keux, Mem. of Camb. vol. ii. King's Coll. pp. 20, 21. Thus also Fabyan relates that the king coming to St. Paul's "kneled in a trauers purueyed for hym" near the altar. Chron. 9 Hen. VI. A Traverse is explained in the Glossary of Architecture as having been a screen with curtains, in a hall, chapel, or large chamber.] Transversum.

- TRAWE, of a smythe (trough of a smythy, P.) ["A trave for to scho horse in, Ferratorium." CATH. ANG. This term, it will be remem∣bered, is used by Chaucer, in his description of the Miller's young wife, where he says—"she sprong as a colt in a traue" (rhyming to save). Miller's Tale. This is doubtless the frame used for confining an unruly horse whilst being shod. According to Forby, a smith's shoeing shed is called in Norfolk a Traverse. Edm. Heyward, of Little Walsing∣ham, blacksmith, bequeaths to his wife, in 1517, "my place wich is called the house at the travesse," a term which may probably have been connected with that occurring above.

- TREACLE (halyvey, or bote a-ȝēn sekenesse, supra. [Antitodum, MS. and S. P. The composition of various kinds of Theriaca, an antidote for bites of serpents and venomous animals, is given by Pliny and other writers. Scribonius Lar∣gus speaks of it as made of the flesh of vipers. In the Middle Ages it was highly esteemed against poison, venom of serpents, and certain diseases; the nature of the nostrum may be learned from ancient medicinal treatises, such as Nic. de Hostresham's Antidotarium, Sloane MS. 341. The Treacle of Genoa appears to have been in very high repute; its virtues are thus extolled by Andrew Borde, physician to Henry VII. "Whan they do make theyr treacle a man wyll take and eate poysen and than he wyl swel redy to borst and to dye, and as sone as he hath takyn trakle he is hole agene." Boke of the Introd. of Knowledge, 1542. Thus also says Caxton, in the Book for Travellers, " of bestes, venemous serpentes, lizarts, scorpions, flies, wormes, who of thise wormes shall be byten he must haue triacle, yf not that he shall deye!" We cannot marvel that costly appliances were often provided wherein to carry so precious an antidote, so as to be constantly at hand, such as the "pixis argenti ad tiriacam," Close Roll 9 Joh.; the "Triacle box du pere apelle une Hakette, garniz d'or," among the precious effects of Henry V.; the Godet, holding treacle, the gift of John de Kellawe, found with relics and offerings to the shrine of St. Cuthbert at Durham, in 1383; and the "Tracleere argenteum et deauratum cum costis de birall," bequeathed by Henry, lord Scrope in 1415 to his sister. A curious illus∣tration of the great esteem in which Treacle of Genoa was held, and of the difficulty of obtaining it unadulterated, occurs in the Paston Letters, vol. iv. p. 264; and in 1479, during the great sickness in England, John Paston entreats his brother Sir John to send him speedily "11 pottys of tryacle of Jenne, they shall coste xvj.d.—the pepyll dyeth sore in Norwiche;" vol. v. pp. 260, 264. In Miles Coverdale's translation of Wermu∣lierus' Precious Pearle, it is said that " the Phisitian in making of his Triacle occupieth serpents and adders and such like poison, to driue out one poyson with another." The term occasionally occurs to designate remedies differing greatly from the true theriaca. In Arund. MS. 42, f. 15 b. we read that juice of garlic " fordoþ venym and poyson myȝtily, and þat is þe skyle why it is called Triacle of vppelond, or ellys homly folkys Triacle."] Tiriaca, antidotum, C. F.

The term Turpethum, however, is ex∣plained by Rulandus in his Lexicon Alchemioe, as derived from Arabic, and used to de∣signate some bark or root of a plant, which may have been the spice with which the compiler of the Promptorium was familiar.]

PALSG. "A Turfe, cespes, gleba. A Turfe grafte, turbarium." CATH. ANG. The distinction above intended seems to be retained in East Anglian dialect, according to Forby, who gives the following explanation'—"Turf, s. peat; fuel dug from boggy ground. The dictionaries interpret the word as meaning only the surface of the ground pared off. These we call flags, and they are cut from dry heaths as well as from bogs. The substance of the soil below these is turf. Every separate portion is a turf, and the plural is turves, which is used by Chaucer." In Somerset likewise, peat cut into fuel is called turf, and turves, according to Jennings' Glossary. In a collection of English and Latin sentences, late XV. cent. Arundel MS. 249, f. 18, compiled at Oxford for the use of schools, it is said,—"I wondre nat a litle how they that dwelle by the see syde lyvethe when ther comythe eny excellent colde, and namely in suche costys wher ther be no woodys; but, as I here, they make as great a fire of torves as we do of woode."] Cespes, C.
