My favourite dictionary ever. Sample entry:

PANK: to spank a glaze, is to break a pane of glass in a shop window,
and make a sudden snatch at some article of value within your reach,
having previously tied the shop-door with a strong cord on the outside,
so as to prevent the shopman from getting out, till you have had full
time to escape with your booty; to spank a place, is to rob it upon the
spank, a spank is a robbery effected by the above means.
