FUR'NISH, There is a close affinity, in sense and elements, between furnish, garnish, and the L. orno, which may have been forno or horno. We see in furlow, above the f is lost in three of the languages, and it may be so in orno. The primary sense is to put on, or to set on.

1. To supply with any thing wanted or necessary as, to furnish a family with provisions to furnish arms for defense to furnish a table to furnish a library to furnish one with money or implements.

2. To supply to store as, to furnish the mind with ideas to furnish one with knowledge or principles.
