a. [f. STEP sb. + -LESS.] Having no step or steps.
1827. G. Darley, Sylvia, 20. You might as well climb the stepless air and catch that voice … as overtake my Sylvia.
1856. Maitland Mercury, 16 Feb., 3/3.
| Desiring, aspiring— | |
| To climb a stepless ladder up, | |
| And leaguing and ’triguing, | |
| Until you taste some bitter cup. |
