Tenure by free alms This word alms is singular in its form and is sometimes so used; as, "asked an alms." Acts iii. 3."Received an alms." Shak. It is now, however, commonly a collective or plural noun. It is much used in composition, as almsgiver, almsgiving, alms bag, alms chest, etc. Almsdeed Almsfolk Almsgiver Almsgiving Almshouse Almsman Almucantar Almuce Almude Almug Most writers at the present day follow Celsius, who takes it to be the red sandalwood of China and the Indian Archipelago.
