† aˈschape, v. Obs.
[A variant, due to phonetic levelling of proclitic ĕ- and ă- (see a- prefix 9), of eschape, a by-form of escape, imitating middle Fr. spelling eschaper (mod. échapper). Chiefly but not exclusively northern. Aphetized in 15th c. to schape, shape, which, as well as the full form, became obs. bef. 1500.]
= escape.
