   Usage: Delicious refers to the pleasure derived from certain
          of the senses, particularly the taste and smell; as,
          delicious food; a delicious fragrance. Delightful may
          also refer to most of the senses (as, delightful
          music; a delightful prospect; delightful sensations),
          but has a higher application to matters of taste,
          feeling, and sentiment; as, a delightful abode,
          conversation, employment; delightful scenes, etc.

                Like the rich fruit he sings, delicious in
                decay.                            --Smith.

                No spring, nor summer, on the mountain seen,
                Smiles with gay fruits or with delightful green.
                                                  --Addison.
