bye-work (plural bye-works)

1. Archaic form of bywork.
   • 1926, Plutarch, translated by Bernadotte Perrin, Life of Aratus:

     [Aratus of Sicyon] is said to have been a more ornate speaker than some think who judge from the Commentaries which he left; these were a bye-work, and were composed in haste, off-hand, and in the words that first occurred to him in the heat of contest.
