   7. At an end; beyond the limit of continuance; completed;
      finished. ``Their distress was over.'' --Macaulay. ``The
      feast was over.'' --Sir W. Scott.

   Note: Over, out, off, and similar adverbs, are often used in
         the predicate with the sense and force of adjectives,
         agreeing in this respect with the adverbs of place,
         here, there, everywhere, nowhere; as, the games were
         over; the play is over; the master was out; his hat is
         off.

   Note: Over is much used in composition, with the same
         significations that it has as a separate word; as in
         overcast, overflow, to cast or flow so as to spread
         over or cover; overhang, to hang above; overturn, to
         turn so as to bring the underside towards the top;
         overact, overreach, to act or reach beyond, implying
         excess or superiority.

   {All over}.
      (a) Over the whole; upon all parts; completely; as, he is
          spatterd with mud all over.
      (b) Wholly over; at an end; as, it is all over with him.
          

   {Over again}, once more; with repetition; afresh; anew.
      --Dryden.

   {Over against}, opposite; in front. --Addison.

   {Over and above}, in a manner, or degree, beyond what is
      supposed, defined, or usual; besides; in addition; as, not
      over and above well. ``He . . . gained, over and above,
      the good will of all people.'' --L' Estrange.

   {Over and over}, repeatedly; again and again.

   {To boil over}. See under {Boil}, v. i.

   {To come it over}, {To do over}, {To give over}, etc. See
      under {Come}, {Do}, {Give}, etc.

   {To throw over}, to abandon; to betray. Cf. {To throw
      overboard}, under {Overboard}.



   Note: In the ancient phrases, all too dear, all too much, all
         so long, etc., this word retains its appropriate sense
         or becomes intensive.

   2. Even; just. (Often a mere intensive adjunct.) [Obs. or
      Poet.]

            All as his straying flock he fed.     --Spenser.

            A damsel lay deploring All on a rock reclined.
                                                  --Gay.

   {All to}, or {All-to}. In such phrases as ``all to rent,''
      ``all to break,'' ``all-to frozen,'' etc., which are of
      frequent occurrence in our old authors, the all and the to
      have commonly been regarded as forming a compound adverb,
      equivalent in meaning to entirely, completely, altogether.
      But the sense of entireness lies wholly in the word all
      (as it does in ``all forlorn,'' and similar expressions),
      and the to properly belongs to the following word, being a
      kind of intensive prefix (orig. meaning asunder and
      answering to the LG. ter-, HG. zer-). It is frequently to
      be met with in old books, used without the all. Thus
      Wyclif says, ``The vail of the temple was to rent:'' and
      of Judas, ``He was hanged and to-burst the middle:'' i.
      e., burst in two, or asunder.

   {All along}. See under {Along}.

   {All and some}, individually and collectively, one and all.
      [Obs.] ``Displeased all and some.'' --Fairfax.

   {All but}.
      (a) Scarcely; not even. [Obs.] --Shak.
      (b) Almost; nearly. ``The fine arts were all but
          proscribed.'' --Macaulay.

   {All hollow}, entirely, completely; as, to beat any one all
      hollow. [Low]

   {All one}, the same thing in effect; that is, wholly the same
      thing.

   {All over}, over the whole extent; thoroughly; wholly; as,
      she is her mother all over. [Colloq.]

   {All the better}, wholly the better; that is, better by the
      whole difference.

   {All the same}, nevertheless. ``There they [certain
      phenomena] remain rooted all the same, whether we
      recognize them or not.'' --J. C. Shairp. ``But Rugby is a
      very nice place all the same.'' --T. Arnold. -- See also
      under {All}, n.
