The part of this dictionary entry that would not have been included in English dictionaries published before Johnson's Dictionary of the English Language is the quotation from literature

Explanation:

The Johnson's Dictionary of the English Language was published in London in 1755 and it is not as one of the most complete and influential dictionaries of English Language it has the most precise definitions besides it was innovative at the time because it added the quotation from literature that is based in a vast variety of examples from classic English literature to illustrate the use of words.
