2. verb
To compete with; to rival

By heaven methinks it were an easy leapTo pluck bright honour from the pale-faced moon;Or dive into the bottom of the deep,Where fathom-line could never touch the ground, And pluck up drowned honour by the locks; So he that doth redeem her thence might wear Without corrival all her dignities: But out upon this half-facd fellowship!
