☞ Here is sometimes used before a verb without a subject, either being used as an indefinite subject, or the latter being omitted; as, here goes, for here it goes, or here one goes, or perhaps for here go I;—especially occurring thus in drinking healths. “Then here’s for earnest.” Dryden. “Here’s to thee, Dick.” Cooley.
Here and there, in one place and another; in a dispersed manner or condition; thinly, or irregularly.—It is neither here nor there, it is neither in this place nor in that; neither in one place nor in another; hence, unimportant; irrelevant. Milton.
