The generalized sense \"to defend, screen, protect\" arises ca. 1500. The sense \"to fight with swords (rapiers)\" is from the 1590s (Shakespeare).\nDisplaced native Old English heġe (compare Modern English hedge).",

The generalized sense \"to defend, screen, protect\" arises ca. 1500. The sense \"to fight with swords (rapiers)\" is from the 1590s (Shakespeare).\nDisplaced native Old English heġe (compare Modern English hedge).",
