  Hidden \Hid"den\, p. p. & a.
     from {Hide}. Concealed; put out of view; secret; not known;
     mysterious.
     [1913 Webster]
  
     {Hidden fifths} or {Hidden octaves} (Mus.), consecutive


        fifths or octaves, not sounded, but suggested or implied
        in the parallel motion of two parts towards a fifth or an
        octave.
  
     Syn: {Hidden}, {Secret}, {Covert}.
  
     Usage: Hidden may denote either known to on one; as, a hidden
            disease; or intentionally concealed; as, a hidden
            purpose of revenge. Secret denotes that the thing is
            known only to the party or parties concerned; as, a
            secret conspiracy. Covert literally denotes what is
            not open or avowed; as, a covert plan; but is often
            applied to what we mean shall be understood, without
            openly expressing it; as, a covert allusion. Secret is
            opposed to known, and hidden to revealed.
