Index Entries This Index lacks the intelligence found in the original hand-edited Index, where
common-sense aggregations occur. For example A B C and A.B.C. are found under a single
Index entry in the original Index. Also, phrases are here listed alphabetically rather than
semantically. For example, in the original Index under the Index entry home there are phrases
such as be at -, at - with, bring to (be at home, at home with, bring home to). In this
automatically-generated Index be at home is instead listed after the entry be at cross purposes
with and before the entries be at home in, and be at home with; while bring home to is listed
after bring i.e. none are listed under home.
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. The
1911 Rogets 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 Rogets 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.
