Occasionally, when I simply transcribe a short entry rather than do the whole copy, scan, upload, download routine, I fear readers will think I have made a typo due to one or another of George’s archaic usages. “Shew” comes to mind as an example.

I think he’s using “shew” as a verb and “show” as a noun, but I’m not certain.
