Riches \Rich"es\, n. pl. [OE. richesse, F. richesse, from riche
   rich, of German origin. See {Rich},a.]
   1. That which makes one rich; an abundance of land, goods,
      money, or other property; wealth; opulence; affluence.

            Riches do not consist in having more gold and
            silver, but in having more in proportion, than our
            neighbors.                            --Locke.

   2. That which appears rich, sumptuous, precious, or the like.

            The riche of heaven's pavement, trodden gold.
                                                  --Milton.

   Note: Richesse, the older form of this word, was in the
         singular number. The form riches, however, is plural in
         appearance, and has now come to be used as a plural.

               Against the richesses of this world shall they
               have misease of poverty.           --Chaucer.

               In one hour so great riches is come to nought.
                                                  --Rev. xviii.
                                                  17.

               And for that riches where is my deserving?
                                                  --Shak.

   Syn: Wealth; opulence; affluence; wealthiness; richness;
        plenty; abundance.
