And snudge in quiet; now he scorns increase;

Now all day spares. Herbert.

    The quotation from literature.

    Explanation:

    Johnson's dictionary of the English language was a dictionary published in 1755 by Samuel Johnson. This was the dominant dictionary in the English language until the Oxford English Dictionary came out 173 years later. Johnson completed this work single-handedly over a period of seven years. Before the publication of this dictionary, the part of the entry that would not have appeared in other dictionaries would have been the quotation from literature.
