[Ads-l] "cohoop" verb, 1676; not in OED

[Joel Berson]

I blush -- the earlier input was mine very own, and the very same 1676 quotation.  I can only plead that the extent of my short-term memory deficit has now reached five years.

(I had used Ben's "custom" Google search, but will in the future add Garson's formula.)
