- wards:
- That is, classes against each other. Ward formerly signified a class or division. We still apply the term to the different apartments in hospitals, and to the more extensive districts into which the city of London is divided. "And they castª° lots,ª wardª againstª [ward], as well the smallª as the great,ª the teacherª° as¹ the scholar.ª" {1Ch 25:8}
