4. whatever; whatsoever; what thing soever; -- used indefinitely. "what after so befall." whether it were the shortness of his foresight, the strength of his will, or what it was.
5. used adverbially, in part; partly; somewhat; -- with a following preposition, especially, with, and commonly with repetition. what for lust [pleasure] and what for lore. thus, what with the war, what with the sweat, what with the gallows, and what with poverty, i am custom shrunk. the year before he had so used the matter that what by force, what by policy, he had taken from the christians above thirty small castles.
