Webster's Dictionary [1]
A pestilence which ravaged Europe and Asia in the fourteenth century.
The Nuttall Encyclopedia [2]
A name given to a succession of fatal epidemics that devastated the world from China to Ireland in the 14th century, believed to be the same as the Oriental plague, though attended with peculiar symptoms; the most serious was that of 1348, which, as is reckoned, stripped England alone of one-third of its inhabitants.
