      Syn: To fatigue; tire; weary; harass.
  
      Usage: To {Jade}, {Fatigue}, {Tire}, {Weary}. Fatigue is the
                  generic term; tire denotes fatigue which wastes the
                  strength; weary implies that a person is worn out by
                  exertion; jade refers to the weariness created by a
                  long and steady repetition of the same act or effort.
                  A little exertion will tire a child or a weak person;
                  a severe or protracted task wearies equally the body
                  and the mind; the most powerful horse becomes jaded on
                  a long journey by a continual straining of the same
                  muscles. Wearied with labor of body or mind; tired of
                  work, tired out by importunities; jaded by incessant
