   syn: at last, at length.

   usage: these phrases both denote that some delayed end or

          more than three months, we at length arrived safe. at
          last commonly implies that something has occurred as
          interruptions, disappointments, etc. which leads us
          to emphasize the idea of having reached the end; as,
          in spite of every obstacle, we have at last arrived.
