Noun

daliance (plural daliances)

  1. Obsolete spelling of dalliance
    • 1594, Christopher Marlowe, The Tragedy of Dido Queene of Carthage‎:
      Banish that ticing dame from forth your mouth, And follow your foreseeing starres in all; This is no life for men at armes to liue, Where daliance doth consume a Souldiers strength, And wanton motions of alluring eyes, Effeminate our mindes inur'd to warre.
