superintend \su`perintend"\, v. t. imp.  p. p.
   superintended; p. pr.  vb. n. superintending. l.
   superintendere. see super-, and intend.
   to have or exercise the charge and oversight of; to oversee
   with the power of direction; to take care of with authority;
   to supervise; as, an officer superintends the building of a
   ship or the construction of a fort.
   1913 webster

         the king may appoint a council, who may superintend the
         works of this nature.                    --bacon.
   1913 webster

   syn: superintend, supervise.

   usage: these words in general use are the synonymous. as
          sometimes used, supervise implies the more general,
          and superintend, the more particular and constant,
          inspection or direction. among architects there is a
          disposition to use the word supervise in the sense of
          a general oversight of the main points of construction
          with reference to the design, etc., and to employ the
          word superintend to signify a constant, careful
          attention to all the details of construction. but this
          technical distinction is not firmly established.
