WHERE, adv.
1. At which place or places.
She visited the place where first she was so happy--
In all places where I record my name, I will come to thee and I will bless thee. Exodus 20.
2. At or in what place.
Adam, where art thou? Genesis 3.
3. At the place in which.
Where I though the remnant of my age should have been cherishd by her child-like duty.
4. Whither; to what place, or from what place. Where are you going? Where are you from? These uses of where are common, and the first cannot be condemned as vulgar.
Any where, in any place. I sought the man, but could not find him any where.
Note. Where seems to have been originally a noun, and was so used by Spenser. He shall find no where safe to him. In this sense, it is obsolete; yet it implies place, its original signification.
WHERENESS, n. Ubiety; imperfect locality.
A point hath no dimensions, but only a whereness, and is next to nothing.
This word is not used, nor has it any intelligible signification.
"Seek ye out of the book of the Lord, and read" —Isaiah 34:16, KJV
