Re: Wick?
Yes.....still use it today......in something like..... 'you must be wick' when you don't feel the cold ....said to be derived from the fact that dogs have temperature above that of a human (so you must have a higher body temperature) and used to be used as a draw for fleas(hence the term 'lapdog) from the ladies of olden times who were 'wick' with fleas and lice.
Sorry for such a long winded explanation.
