   Usage: Falsity, Falsehood, Lie. Falsity denotes the
          state or quality of being false. A falsehood is a
          false declaration designedly made. A lie is a gross,
          unblushing falsehood. The falsity of a person's
          assertion may be proved by the evidence of others and
          thus the charge of falsehood be fastened upon him.
