† time of grace n. Hunting Obsolete (a) the time of year when deer are fattest and fit for killing; cf. in the time of grease at grease n. 1b; (b) = close season n. 1.Quot. a1610 shows substitution of grace for grease in the phrase time of grease (see in the time of grease at grease n. 1b), perhaps owing to compositorial error or ‘correction’ of an unfamiliar phrase. Sense (b) is apparently based on a misunderstanding: see quot. 1903.

1903 Baily's Mag. Apr. 240/2 (note) Strutt..gives an entirely wrong meaning to this term [sc. ‘pride of grease’] by calling it..‘Time of Grace’. As he adds that it extended from Midsummer to Holyrood day.., the very season of the year when there was never a time of grace for deer, the mistake is a very obvious one.
