shew
Show, King James
Shew is an archaic or dialectal spelling of show, now rarely encountered outside older texts, legal documents, or deliberate archaism: The evidence will shew the defendant's guilt.
The past tense shewed and past participle shewn follow the same pattern.
Modern usage strongly favors show in all contexts.
