   Skr. asti. [root]9. Cf. Am, Entity, Essence, Absent.]
   The third person singular of the substantive verb be, in the
   indicative mood, present tense; as, he is; he is a man. See
   Be.

               For thy is I come, and eke Alain.  --Chaucer.
         [1913 Webster]

               Aye is thou merry.                 --Chaucer.
         [1913 Webster]

   Note: The idiom of using the present for future events sure
         to happen is a relic of Old English in which the
         present and future had the same form; as, this year
         Christmas is on Friday.

               To-morrow is the new moon.         --1 Sam. xx.
