 Definition: 
  1. \Me\, pron.
    One. See {Men}, pron. [Obs.] --Chaucer.
    
    
  2. \Me\ (m[=e]), pers. pron. [AS. m[=e], dat. & acc., mec, acc.
    only; akin to D. mij, G. mich, Icel. & Goth. mik, L. me, Gr.
    me`, 'eme`, Skr. m[=a], m[=a]m. [root]187. Cf. 2d {Mine}.]
    The person speaking, regarded as an object; myself; a pronoun
    of the first person used as the objective and dative case of
    the pronoum I; as, he struck me; he gave me the money, or he
    gave the money to me; he got me a hat, or he got a hat for
    me.
    
    Note: In methinks, me is properly in the dative case, and the
          verb is impersonal, the construction being, it appears
          to me. In early use me was often placed before forms of
          the verb to be with an adjective; as, me were lief.
    
                Me rather had my heart might frrl your love Than
                my unpleased eye see your courtesy. --Shak.
