Syn: To long for; hanker after; covet; wish; ask; request;
solicit; entreat; beg.
Usage: To Desire, Wish. In desire the feeling is usually
more eager than in wish. "I wish you to do this" is a
milder form of command than "I desire you to do this,"
though the feeling prompting the injunction may be the
same. --C. J. Smith.
