            [1913 Webster]
  
     Syn: Employ.
  
     Usage: Use, Employ. We use a thing, or make use of it,
            when we derive from it some enjoyment or service. We
            employ it when we turn that service into a particular
            channel. We use words to express our general meaning;
            we employ certain technical terms in reference to a
            given subject. To make use of, implies passivity in
            the thing; as, to make use of a pen; and hence there
            is often a material difference between the two words
            when applied to persons. To speak of ``making use of
            another'' generally implies a degrading idea, as if we
            had used him as a tool; while employ has no such
            sense. A confidential friend is employed to negotiate;
            an inferior agent is made use of on an intrigue.
            [1913 Webster]
  
                  I would, my son, that thou wouldst use the power

            [1913 Webster]
  
                  To study nature will thy time employ:
                  Knowledge and innocence are perfect joy.
                                                    --Dryden.
