      hurt.]
      Harm; injury; detriment. [Obs.]

From Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary (1913) [web1913]:
   Noisome \Noi"some\, a. [For noysome, fr. noy for annoy. See
      {Annoy}.]
      1. Noxious to health; hurtful; mischievous; unwholesome;
            insalubrious; destructive; as, noisome effluvia.
            [bd]Noisome pestilence.[b8] --Ps. xci. 3.

            adv. -- {Noi"some*ness}, n.
  
      Syn: Noxious; unwholesome; insalubrious; mischievous;
               destructive.
  
      Usage: {Noisome}, {Noxious}. These words have to a great
                  extent been interchanged; but there is a tendency to
                  make a distinction between them, applying noxious to
                  things that inflict evil directly; as, a noxious
                  plant, noxious practices, etc., and noisome to things
                  that operate with a remoter influence; as, noisome
                  vapors, a noisome pestilence, etc. Noisome has the
                  additional sense of disqusting. A garden may be free
                  from noxious weeds or animals; but, if recently
                  covered with manure, it may be filled with a noisome
                  smell.
