While this doesn't necessarily preclude an entry glossed as "rare, nonstandard": the 1880 and 2006 citations appear to be humorous spellings to fit the rhyme pattern of songs ("we-sea" and "spree"). The 2000 one looks as though it might just be a misspelling, though it's hard to be sure. Equinox ◑ 20:57, 11 September 2021 (UTC)
