Two words

The OED has two entries for nouns spelt pleasance, viz. "pleasance, n.¹" and "† pleasance, n.²", both containing considerable amounts of information. Perhaps their predecessor entries from the NED can be culled for Wiktionary's entry. I'm so meta even this acronym (talk) 17:13, 8 May 2013 (UTC)Reply

Here are the entries, on page 983 of volume VII of the NED. That volume of the NED was published in 1909, so its content is in the public domain (i.e., out of copyright). I'm so meta even this acronym (talk) 17:17, 8 May 2013 (UTC)Reply
