▪ II. † eˈxantlate, v. Obs.
[f. L. exantlāt- ppl. stem of exantlāre to draw out (a liquid).
The etymology of the L. word is disputed; some, relying on the variant spelling exanclare (which seems to be the better attested of the two), consider it to be f. ex- out + anculus servant, so that the primary sense would be ‘to draw (water, etc.) as a servant.’ Others regard the word as ad. Gr. ἐξαντλεῖν to pump out, empty (liquids), f. ἐξ out + ἄντλος hold of a ship. In any case the fig. use of exantlare or exanclare for ‘to endure to the uttermost’ must have been suggested by the precisely similar use of the Gr. word.]
1. trans. To draw out as from a well.
