denote continuous and uninterrupted vigilance or
protection, or both watching and guarding. this
distinction is now rarely recognized, watch being used
to signify a watching or guarding both by night and by
day, and ward, which is now rarely used, having simply
the meaning of guard, or protection, without reference
to time.
