- [7] : THE DEVIL'S DICTIONARY ((C)1911 Released April 15 1993)
hag, n. an elderly lady whom you do not happen to like; sometimes
called, also, a hen, or cat. old witches, sorceresses, etc., were
called hags from the belief that their heads were surrounded by a kind
of baleful lumination or nimbus -- hag being the popular name of that
peculiar electrical light sometimes observed in the hair. at one time
hag was not a word of reproach: drayton speaks of a "beautiful hag,
all smiles," much as shakespeare said, "sweet wench." it would not
now be proper to call your sweetheart a hag -- that compliment is
reserved for the use of her grandchildren.
