From Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary (1913) [web1913]:
   Sugar \Sug"ar\, n. [OE. sugre, F. sucre (cf. It. zucchero, Sp.
      az[a3]car), fr. Ar. sukkar, assukkar, fr. Skr. [87]arkar[be]
      sugar, gravel; cf. Per. shakar. Cf. {Saccharine}, {Sucrose}.]
      1. A sweet white (or brownish yellow) crystalline substance,
            of a sandy or granular consistency, obtained by
            crystallizing the evaporated juice of certain plants, as
            the sugar cane, sorghum, beet root, sugar maple, etc. It
            is used for seasoning and preserving many kinds of food
            and drink. Ordinary sugar is essentially sucrose. See the
            Note below.
  
      Note: The term sugar includes several commercial grades, as
               the white or refined, granulated, loaf or lump, and the
               raw brown or muscovado. In a more general sense, it
               includes several distinct chemical compounds, as the
               glucoses, or grape sugars (including glucose proper,
               dextrose, and levulose), and the sucroses, or true
               sugars (as cane sugar). All sugars are carbohydrates.
               See {Carbohydrate}. The glucoses, or grape sugars, are
               ketone alcohols of the formula {C6H12O6}, and they turn
               the plane of polarization to the right or the left.
               They are produced from the amyloses and sucroses, as by
               the action of heat and acids of ferments, and are
               themselves decomposed by fermentation into alcohol and
               carbon dioxide. The only sugar (called acrose) as yet
               produced artificially belongs to this class. The
               sucroses, or cane sugars, are doubled glucose
               anhydrides of the formula {C12H22O11}. They are usually
               not fermentable as such (cf. {Sucrose}), and they act
               on polarized light.
  
      2. By extension, anything resembling sugar in taste or
            appearance; as, sugar of lead (lead acetate), a poisonous
            white crystalline substance having a sweet taste.
  
      3. Compliment or flattery used to disguise or render
            acceptable something obnoxious; honeyed or soothing words.

      {Muscle sugar}, a sweet white crystalline substance isomeric

      {Pine sugar}. See {Pinite}.
  
      {Starch sugar} (Com. Chem.), a variety of dextrose made by
