THESAURUS has two meanings, so there may be at least two possibilities.
1. A book of synonyms, often including related and contrasting words and antonyms.
synonym = "synonymicon" (or you might use a 'brand name', e.g., "look it up in your Roget's" just as you might use "Webster's" as a general term for dictionary)
2. A book of selected words or concepts, such as a specialized vocabulary of a particular field, as of medicine or music.
