             Through mighty signs and wonders, by the power of

       [1913 Webster]

             It shall come to pass, if they will not believe
             thee, neither hearken to the voice of the first
             sign, that they will believe the voice of the

       [1913 Webster]

             The holy symbols, or signs, are not barely
             significative; but what they represent is as
             certainly delivered to us as the symbols
             themselves.                          --Brerewood.

       of a signs such as those used by the North American
       Indians, or those used by the deaf and dumb.
       [1913 Webster]

   Note: Educaters of the deaf distinguish between natural
         signs, which serve for communicating ideas, and
         methodical, or systematic, signs, adapted for the
         dictation, or the rendering, of written language, word
         by word; and thus the signs are to be distinguished
         from the manual alphabet, by which words are spelled on
         the fingers.
         [1913 Webster]
   (h) A military emblem carried on a banner or a standard.
       --Milton.

       token or notice.
       [1913 Webster]

             The shops were, therefore, distinguished by painted

       [1913 Webster]
   (j) (Astron.) The twelfth part of the ecliptic or zodiac.
       [1913 Webster]

   Note: The signs are reckoned from the point of intersection
         of the ecliptic and equator at the vernal equinox, and
         are named, respectively, Aries ([Aries]), Taurus
         ([Taurus]), Gemini (II), Cancer ([Cancer]), Leo
         ([Leo]), Virgo ([Virgo]), Libra ([Libra]),
         Scorpio ([Scorpio]), Sagittarius ([Sagittarius]),
         Capricornus  ([Capricorn]), {Aquarius ([Aquarius]),
         Pisces ([Pisces]). These names were originally the
         names of the constellations occupying severally the
         divisions of the zodiac, by which they are still
         retained; but, in consequence of the procession of the
         equinoxes, the signs have, in process of time, become
         separated about 30 degrees from these constellations,
         and each of the latter now lies in the sign next in
         advance, or to the east of the one which bears its
         name, as the constellation Aries in the sign Taurus,
         etc.
         [1913 Webster]
   (k) (Alg.) A character indicating the relation of quantities,
       or an operation performed upon them; as, the sign +
       (plus); the sign -- (minus); the sign of division /, and
       the like.
   (l) (Med.) An objective evidence of disease; that is, one
       appreciable by some one other than the patient.
       [1913 Webster]

   Note: The terms symptom and and sign are often used
         synonymously; but they may be discriminated. A sign
         differs from a symptom in that the latter is perceived
         only by the patient himself. The term sign is often
         further restricted to the purely local evidences of
         disease afforded by direct examination of the organs
         involved, as distinguished from those evidence of
         general disturbance afforded by observation of the
         temperature, pulse, etc. In this sense it is often
         called physical sign.
         [1913 Webster]
   (m) (Mus.) Any character, as a flat, sharp, dot, etc.
   (n) (Theol.) That which, being external, stands for, or
       signifies, something internal or spiritual; -- a term
       used in the Church of England in speaking of an ordinance
       considered with reference to that which it represents.
       [1913 Webster]

             An outward and visible sign of an inward and
             spiritual grace.                     --Bk. of
                                                  Common Prayer.
       [1913 Webster]

   Note: See the Table of Arbitrary Signs, p. 1924.
         [1913 Webster]

   Sign manual.
   (a) (Eng. Law) The royal signature superscribed at the top of
       bills of grants and letter patent, which are then sealed

       to complete their validity.
   (b) The signature of one's name in one's own handwriting.
