PREFIXES.

I am a part of the body. By prefixing different letters of the alphabet
I may be changed into a fruit, a period of time, an animal, a term of
affection, wearing apparel, a sign of emotion, anxiety, or verbs
signifying to approach, to attend, to raise up, to wither, and to waste
gradually. What am I? and what are my changes?

GEORGE E.
