Doublet of shrive.\nThe verb sense used in carpentry comes from the way a workman uses a compass to mark a line before cutting.",

Doublet of shrive.\nThe verb sense used in carpentry comes from the way a workman uses a compass to mark a line before cutting.",

Doublet of shrive.\nThe verb sense used in carpentry comes from the way a workman uses a compass to mark a line before cutting.",

Doublet of shrive.\nThe verb sense used in carpentry comes from the way a workman uses a compass to mark a line before cutting.",
