Snug, comfortable. Dr. Jamieson calls it a Scottish word.
Then cannie in some cozie place
They close the day.
Burns.
To keep you cosie in a hoord,
This hunger I with ease endur'd.
Allan Ramsey.
All observers of primitive life, know that animals, quadruped and biped too, have from time immemorial indulged in the cozey habits of burrowing in the earth, huddling close together, &c.
London Athenæum.
Mid comforts abounding, well clothed and well fed,
The bright fire surrounding, or cosy in bed.
N. Y. Tribune, 1845.
