Allure - (Webster's 1828 Dictionary)

ALLU'RE, v.t.

To attempt to draw to; to tempt by the offer of some good, real or apparent; to invite by something flattering or acceptable; as, rewards allure men to brave danger. Sometimes used in a bad sense, to allure to evil; but in this sense entice is more common. In Hosea 2:14, allure is used in its genuine sense; 2 Pet 2:18, in the sense of entice.
