 Syn: -- Plan; project; contrivance; purpose; device; plot.
 Usage: Scheme, Plan. Scheme and plan are subordinate to design; they propose modes of carrying our designs into effect. Scheme is the least definite of the two, and lies more in speculation. A plan is drawn out into details with a view to being carried into effect. As schemes are speculative, they often prove visionary; hence the opprobrious use of the words schemer and scheming. Plans, being more practical, are more frequently carried into effect.
 He forms the well-concerted scheme of mischief;
 'T is fixed, 't is done, and both are doomed to death.   --Rowe.
 Artists and plans relieved my solemn hours;
 I founded palaces, and planted bowers.   --Prior.
