Context: "When their changes are completed, and after they have worked up a <t>sweat</t>, ringers often skip off to the local pub..."
The phrase "worked up a sweat" means they have exerted themselves physically, resulting in perspiration.
Let's look at the candidate senses:
1. salty fluid secreted by sweat glands (perspiration, sudor) - "worked up a sweat" refers to producing this fluid through physical exertion.
2. agitation resulting from active worry (fret, stew) - not applicable.
3. condensation of moisture on a cold surface - not applicable.
4. use of physical or mental energy; hard work (effort, elbow grease) - "worked up a sweat" literally means producing sweat, though it implies effort. But "sweat" itself in "worked up a sweat" refers to the fluid. Wait, "worked up a sweat" is an idiom, but "sweat" here is the fluid. Let's check WordNet.
"worked up a sweat" -> sweat%1:08:00:: (salty fluid secreted by sweat glands).
Let's see: "sweat poured off his brow" is the example for sense 1.
Is "sweat" in "worked up a sweat" sense 1 or sense 4?
Sense 1: salty fluid secreted by sweat glands.
Sense 4: use of physical or mental energy; hard work.
"worked up a sweat" -> the sweat is the fluid. You work up (produce) sweat.
Let's consider "worked up a sweat". The noun "sweat" refers to the perspiration.
Therefore, sense 1 is the most appropriate.
Let's double check. "worked up a sweat" -> sweat is the fluid.
Yes, sense 1.
Wait, let's look at the synonyms for sense 1: perspiration, sudor.
"worked up a perspiration" makes sense.
I will choose sense 1.

Candidate senses:
1. many times at short intervals (frequently, oftentimes, oft, ofttimes)
2. frequently or in great quantities (much, a great deal)
3. in many cases or instances

In the context, "ringers often skip off to the local pub" means that in many cases or instances, ringers skip off to the local pub. It describes a habitual action or a general tendency, which aligns with "in many cases or instances".
Let's check the examples.
Sense 1: "we often met over a cup of coffee" (many times at short intervals)
Sense 3: "in many cases or instances"

Wait, "often" in "ringers often skip off to the local pub" means it happens in many cases or instances.
Is it sense 1 or sense 3?
"often" as an adverb of frequency.
Sense 1: many times at short intervals.
Sense 3: in many cases or instances.
"ringers often skip off to the local pub" -> in many cases or instances, they skip off to the local pub.
Let's consider "often" in WordNet.
often%4:02:00:: many times at short intervals
often%4:02:02:: in many cases or instances

"ringers often skip off to the local pub" -> in many cases or instances.
Let's look at similar sentences. "He often goes to the pub." -> in many cases or instances.
I will choose sense 3.
Wait, let's re-read sense 1: "many times at short intervals". Skipping off to the pub after ringing is not necessarily at short intervals, but rather in many cases/instances (whenever they ring, they often do this).
So sense 3 is the best fit.
Let's double check.
"ringers often skip off to the local pub" -> in many cases or instances.
Yes, sense 3.

The target word is "skip" in the context: "When their changes are completed, and after they have worked up a sweat, ringers often skip off to the local pub, leaving worship for others below."
The phrase is "skip off to the local pub".

1. bypass (skip a row)
2. intentionally fail to attend (cut class)
3. jump lightly (hop, hop-skip)
4. leave suddenly (decamp, vamoose, skip town)
5. bound off one point after another
6. cause to skip over a surface (skim, skitter)

Wait, "skip off to the local pub" means to leave suddenly or go quickly.
Let's check sense 4: "leave suddenly" (decamp, vamoose, skip town).
Is "skip off" leaving suddenly? Yes, "skip off" means to leave suddenly or depart.
Wait, let's consider sense 3: "jump lightly". "skip off" could mean to leave in a light, happy manner, but "leave suddenly" (decamp, vamoose) fits "skip off" as a phrasal verb meaning to leave.
Let's check WordNet for "skip off".
"skip" as in "leave suddenly" -> "decamp, vamoose, skip town".
Wait, sense 4 is "leave suddenly".
Let's re-read the context: "ringers often skip off to the local pub, leaving worship for others below."
"skip off" means to leave.
Is it sense 4? "leave suddenly" synonyms: decamp, vamoose.
Let's check if there is a "skip off" sense.
In WordNet, "skip" has a sense: "leave suddenly" (e.g., "She persuaded him to decamp; skip town").
Wait, "skip off" is a phrasal verb. Does "skip" alone mean "leave suddenly"? Yes, "skip town".
What about "skip off"? "skip off" is often used to mean "leave".
Let's look at sense 4: "leave suddenly".
Is there any other sense?
Sense 3: "jump lightly".
If they "skip off to the local pub", they are leaving the church tower to go to the pub. "leaving worship for others below."
"skip off" = leave.
Let's choose sense 4.
Wait, let's double check if "skip off" is "leave suddenly".
"skip" (verb) - leave suddenly. "skip town", "decamp", "vamoose".
Yes, "skip off" means to leave.
Let's consider sense 4.
"leave suddenly"
I will output 4.
Let's review the context: "ringers often skip off to the local pub, leaving worship for others below."
"leaving" is explicitly in the context.
So sense 4 is the best fit.
Another option: sense 3 "jump lightly". But "skip off to the local pub" is an idiom for leaving.
I'll go with 4.
Wait, "skip off" might be sense 4.
Let's confirm.
"skip off" -> leave suddenly.
Yes.

Is "leaving worship" intentional? Yes.
Is it "go and leave behind"? Yes, they skip off to the pub, leaving worship behind.
Let's check sense 1: "go away from a place". Worship is not a place.
Sense 5: "move out of or depart from". Depart from worship? "leave the room".
Sense 8: "remove oneself from an association with or participation in". "She wants to leave".
Sense 2 seems to fit "leaving [object] behind". "She left a mess when she moved out". Here, "leaving worship for others below".
Let's consider if "leave" here means "leave behind". Yes.
I'll go with sense 2.
Wait, let's look at sense 2 again. "go and leave behind, either intentionally or by neglect or forgetfulness".
Is there any other sense?
Sense 7: "have as a result or residue". "The water left a mark".
Sense 11: "have left or have as a remainder". "That left the four of us".
Sense 2 is "go and leave behind". This perfectly matches "skip off to the local pub, leaving worship for others below". They go (skip off) and leave worship behind.
I will choose 2.
Let's double check.
"ringers often skip off to the local pub, leaving worship for others below."
They go to the pub, and they leave worship behind for others.
Sense 2: go and leave behind, either intentionally or by neglect or forgetfulness.
Yes, sense 2.
Another option: sense 9 "put into the care or protection of someone". But worship is not a person or a task that can be "entrusted" in the same way, though "leave the decision to his deputy" is similar. However, "leaving worship for others" is more about leaving it behind as they depart.
I'll bet on 2.
Wait, "leave" as in "leave the dishes for me" is often sense 2.
Let's confirm sense 2.
"leave%2:31:05::" -> go and leave behind, either intentionally or by neglect or forgetfulness.
Yes.
One more check: "leaving worship for others below" -> they leave worship behind.
I am confident in 2.

The target word is "below".
Context: "When their changes are completed, and after they have worked up a sweat, ringers often skip off to the local pub, leaving worship for others below."
The ringers are in the tower (belfry). They leave worship for others "below" (downstairs, on a lower floor, or in a lower place).
Let's check the candidate senses:
1. sense_key=below%4:02:01:: | definition=in or to a place that is lower | synonyms=at a lower place, to a lower place, beneath

Wait, "leaving worship for others below". The ringers are in the tower. The others are in the church, which is "stuck on the bottom of the belfry". So the others are on a floor below, or in a lower place.
Is it 1 or 4?
"leaving worship for others below" -> in a place that is lower.
Let's see: "below" as an adverb.
Sense 1: in or to a place that is lower.
Sense 4: on a floor below.
The text says: "More often than not, ringers think of the church as something stuck on the bottom of the belfry. When their changes are completed, and after they have worked up a sweat, ringers often skip off to the local pub, leaving worship for others below."
The others are in the church, which is below the belfry.
Is it "in or to a place that is lower" (1) or "on a floor below" (4)?
"leaving worship for others below" -> "below" modifies "others" or the location of worship.
Actually, "below" here means "in a lower place" or "downstairs".
Let's check WordNet for "below" adverb.
below%4:02:01:: in or to a place that is lower
below%4:02:06:: on a floor below
"leaving worship for others below" - the others are in the church, which is on a floor below the belfry. But "below" is used generally as "in a lower place".
Wait, sense 1 is "in or to a place that is lower".
Let's consider "leaving worship for others below".
Could it be 1? Yes.
Let's look at similar examples. "The people below" -> people in a lower place.
Is there a better fit?
"leaving worship for others below" -> "below" = in a lower place.
Let's choose 1.
Wait, let's re-read carefully: "leaving worship for others below."
If I say "the people below", it means people in a lower place.
Sense 1: in or to a place that is lower.
Sense 4: on a floor below.
I will go with 1.
Let's double check if 1 is the most appropriate. "in or to a place that is lower" fits perfectly.
"leaving worship for others below" -> others who are in a lower place.
I'll select 1.

Is there a better match?
Let's check sense 1: "in a good or proper or satisfactory manner or to a high standard". "This does not sit in a satisfactory manner with some clerics."
Let's check sense 6: "favorably; with approval". "This does not sit favorably with some clerics."
Wait, "sit well with" is an idiom. "sit well" -> to be acceptable.
Let's look at the options.
Option 6: "favorably; with approval". "their neighbors spoke well of them; he thought well of the book".
Option 1: "in a good or proper or satisfactory manner or to a high standard".
Option 13: "without unusual distress or resentment; with good humor". "took the joke well".

Let's rethink: "sit well with" means to be agreeable or acceptable.
If I say "it doesn't sit well with me", it means I don't approve of it or it doesn't seem right to me.
Sense 6: "favorably; with approval". "This does not sit favorably with some clerics."
Let's check WordNet for "sit well".
Actually, "well" in "sit well" might be sense 6.
Let's check sense 6: "favorably; with approval".
Is there another sense?
What about sense 1? "in a good or proper or satisfactory manner".
Let's search for "sit well" in WordNet.
Wait, "sit well" is not a separate lemma. The adverb "well" modifies "sit".
"Sit well" -> to be acceptable.
"favorably; with approval" fits "sit well with".
Let's consider "sit well with" -> "be acceptable to".
If something does not sit well with someone, it does not meet with their approval.
So "favorably; with approval" (sense 6) is the best fit.
Let's double check sense 6: "favorably; with approval". Examples: "their neighbors spoke well of them; he thought well of the book".
"Sit well with" = "be viewed favorably by".
Yes, sense 6 is the most appropriate.
Let's review the options.
1. in a good or proper or satisfactory manner
6. favorably; with approval
13. without unusual distress or resentment

"This does not sit well with some clerics." -> This does not meet with the approval of some clerics.
Therefore, sense 6 is the best.
Let's confirm.
"well" as in "sit well with" -> favorably.
I will choose 6.
Wait, let's look at sense 1: "in a good or proper or satisfactory manner or to a high standard".
Could it be 1? "sit in a satisfactory manner"? No, "sit well" is about approval.
"favorably; with approval" is exactly the meaning of "sit well with".
I'll go with 6.
Let's check if there is any other sense.
"well" (adverb)
- in a good or proper or satisfactory manner
- thoroughly or completely
- indicating high probability
- entirely or fully
- to a suitable or appropriate extent or degree
- favorably; with approval
- to a great extent or degree
- with great or especially intimate knowledge
- with prudence or propriety
- with skill or in a pleasing manner
- in a manner affording benefit or advantage
- in financial comfort
- without unusual distress or resentment; with good humor

"favorably; with approval" is the best match for "sit well with".
I will output 6.

2. sense_key=membership%1:26:00:: | definition=the state of being a member

In the context, "membership of the Church of England steadily dwindling" refers to the number of people who are members, i.e., the body of members of an organization or group.
Wait, "dwindling membership" means the number of members is decreasing. This aligns with "the body of members of an organization or group".
Let's check the examples: "they polled their membership" -> the body of members.
Sense 1: the body of members of an organization or group.
Sense 2: the state of being a member.

"membership of the Church of England steadily dwindling" -> the body of members is dwindling.
Therefore, sense 1 is the best fit.
Let's double check. "dwindling membership" = the number of members is decreasing. The body of members.
Yes, sense 1.

The target word is "pressing" in the context: "strong-willed vicars are pressing equally strong-willed and often non-religious ringers to attend services."
The vicars are urging, impelling, or forcing the ringers to attend services.
Let's look at the candidate senses:
1. exert pressure or force to or upon (physical)
2. force or impel in an indicated direction (synonyms: urge, urge on, exhort) - "I urged him to finish his studies"
3. to be oppressive or burdensome
4. place between two surfaces and apply weight or pressure
5. squeeze or press together
6. crowd closely
7. create by pressing
8. be urgent
9. exert oneself continuously, vigorously, or obtrusively to gain an end or engage in a crusade for a certain cause or person; be an advocate for (crusade, fight, campaign, push, agitate)
10. press from a plastic
11. make strenuous pushing movements during birth
12. press and smooth with a heated iron
13. lift weights
14. ask for or request earnestly (bid, beseech, entreat, adjure, conjure)

"pressing ... to attend services" -> urging, exhorting, impelling.
Sense 2: "force or impel in an indicated direction" (synonyms: urge, urge on, exhort). Example: "I urged him to finish his studies".
This perfectly matches "pressing ... to attend services".

Let's check sense 2 vs sense 14. Sense 14 is "ask for or request earnestly" (beseech, entreat). The vicars are "strong-willed" and "pressing" the ringers, which implies urging or impelling rather than just earnestly requesting. "urge" is a synonym for sense 2.

Let's read the context again: "strong-willed vicars are pressing equally strong-willed and often non-religious ringers to attend services."
This is "urging" or "exhorting" them.
Sense 2: force or impel in an indicated direction. Synonyms: urge, urge on, exhort.

Therefore, sense 2 is the best fit.
Double check:
"pressing" -> "urging"
"urging equally strong-willed and often non-religious ringers to attend services."
Yes, sense 2.

With membership of the Church of England steadily dwindling, strong-willed vicars are pressing equally strong-willed and often non-religious ringers to attend services. Two years ago, the Rev. Jeremy Hummerstone, <t>vicar</t> of Great Torrington, Devon, got so fed up with ringers who didn't attend service he sacked the entire band; the ringers promptly set up a picket line in protest.

2. (Episcopal Church) a clergyman in charge of a chapel
