1. GAUDEnoun

   In Scotland this word is still retained, both as a showy bawble, and the person fooled. It is also retained in Scotland to denote a yellow flower. An ornament; a fine thing; any thing worn as a sign of joy.

   Etymology: The etymology of this word is uncertain: Stephen Skinner imagines it may come from gaude, French, a yellow flower, yellow being the most gaudy colour. Franciscus Junius, according to his custom, talks of ἄγανος; and Mr. Edward Lye finds gaude, in Douglass, to signify deceit or fraud, from gwawdio, Welsh, to cheat. It seems to me most easily deducible from gaudium, Latin, joy; the cause of joy; a token of joy: thence aptly applied to any thing that gives or expresses pleasure.

   He stole th’ impression of her fantasy,
   With bracelets of thy hair, rings, gaudes, conceits,
   Knacks, trifles, nosegays, sweetmeats. William Shakespeare.

   The sun is in the heav’n, and the proud day,
   Attended with the pleasures of the world,
   Is all too wanton, and too full of gaudes,
   To give me audience. William Shakespeare, King Lear.

   My love to Hermia
   Is melted as the snow; seems to me now
   As the remembrance of an idle gaude,
   Which in my childhood I did doat upon. William Shakespeare.

   Some bound for Guiney, golden sand to find,
   Bore all the gaudes the simple natives wear;
   Some for the pride of Turkish courts design’d,
   For folded turbants finest holland bear. John Dryden, Ann. Mirab.
