     (j) (Astron.) The twelfth part of the ecliptic or zodiac.

           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

         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]

               spiritual grace.                     --Bk. of
                                                    Common Prayer.

/ˈsaɪn/

  SIGN, contracts, evidence. A token of anything; a note or token given 
  without words. 
       2. Contracts are express or implied. The express are manifested viva 
  voce, or by writing; the implied are shown by silence, by acts, or by signs. 
       3. Among all nations find and at all times, certain signs have been 
  considered as proof of assent or dissent; for example, the nodding of the 
  head, and the shaking of hands; 2 Bl. Com. 448; 6 Toull. D. 33; Heinnec., 
  Antiq. lib. 3, t. 23, n. 19; silence and inaction, facts and signs are 
  sometimes very strong evidence of cool reflection, when following a 
  question. I ask you to lend me one hundred dollars, without saying a word 
  you put your hand in your pocket, and deliver me the money. I go into a 
  hotel and I ask the landlord if he can accommodate me and take care of my 
  trunk; without speaking he takes it out of my hands and sends it into his 
  chamber. By this act he doubtless becomes responsible to me as a bailee. At 
  the expiration of a lease, the tenant remains in possession, without any 
  objection from the landlord; this may be fairly interpreted as a sign of a 
  consent that the lease shall be renewed. 13 Serg. & Rawle, 60. 
       4, The learned author of the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire, in 
  his 44th chapter, remarks, "Among savage nations, the want of letters is 
  imperfectly supplied by the use of visible signs, which awaken attention, 
  and perpetuate the remembrance of any public or private transaction. The 
  jurisprudence of the first Romans exhibited the scenes of a pantomime; the 
  words were adapted to the gestures, and the slightest error or neglect in 
  the forms of proceeding was sufficient to annul the substance of the fairest 
  claim. The communion of the marriage-life was denoted by the necessary 
  elements of fire and water: and the divorced wife resigned, the bunch of 
  keys, by the delivery of which she had been invested with the government of 
  the family. The manumission of a son, or a slave, was performed by turning 
  him round with a gentle blow on the cheek: a work was prohibited by the 
  casting of a stone; prescription was interrupted by the breaking of a 
  branch; the clenched fist was the symbol of a pledge or deposits; the right 
  hand was the gift of faith and confidence. The indenture of covenants was a 
  broken straw; weights and, scales were introduced into every payment, and 
  the heir who accepted a testament, was sometimes obliged to snap his 
  fingers, to cast away his garments, and to leap and dance with real or 
  affected transport. If a citizen pursued any stolen goods into a neighbor's 
  house, he concealed his nakedness with a linen towel, and hid his. face with 
  a mask or basin, lest he should encounter the eyes of a virgin or a matron. 
  In a civil action, the plaintiff touched the ear of his witness seized his 
  reluctant adversary by the neck and implored, in solemn lamentation, the aid 
  of his fellow citizens. The two competitors grasped each other's hand, as if 
  they stood prepared for combat before the tribunal of the praetor: he 
  commanded them to produce the object of the dispute; they went, they 
  returned with measured steps, and a clod of earth was cast at his feet to 
  represent the field for which they contended. This occult science of the 
  words and actions of law, was the inheritance of the pontiffs and 
  patricians. Like the Chaldean astrologers, they announced to their clients 
  the days of business and repose; these important trifles wore interwoven 
  with the religion of Numa; and, after the publication of the Twelve Tables, 
  the Roman people were still enslaved by the ignorance of judicial 
  proceedings. The treachery of some plebeian officers at length revealed the 
  profitable mystery: in a more enlightened age, the legal actions were 
  derided and observed; and the same antiquity which sanctified the practice, 
  obliterated the use and meaning, of this primitive language." 
  
  

  SIGN, measures. In angular measures, a sign is equal to thirty degrees. Vide 
  Measure. 
  
  

  SIGN, mer. law. A board, tin or other substance, on which is painted the 
  name and business of a merchant or tradesman. 
       2. Every man has a right to adopt such a sign as he may please to 
  select, but he has no right to use another's name, without his consent. See 
  Dall. Dict. mot Propriete Industrielle, and the article Trade marks. 
  
  To SIGN. To write one's name to an instrument of writing in order to give 
  the effect intended; the name thus written is called a signature. 
       2. The signature is usually made at the bottom of the instrument but in 
  wills it has been held that when a testator commenced his will With these 
  words;, "I, A B, make this my will," it was a sufficient signing. 3 Lev. 1; 
  and vide Rob. on Wills, 122 1 Will. on Wills, 49, 50; Chit. Cont. 212 Newl. 
  Contr. 173; Sugd. Vend. 71; 2 Stark. Ev. 605, 613; Rob. on Fr. 121; but this 
  decision is said to be absurd. 1 Bro. Civ. Law, 278, n. 16. Vide Merl. 
  Repert. mot Signature, for a history of the origin, of signatures; and also 
  4 Cruise, Dig. h.t. 32, c. 2, s. 73, et seq.; see, generally, 8 Toull. n. 
  94-96; 1 Dall. 64; 5 Whart. R. 386; 2 B. & P 238; 2 M. & S. 286. 
       3. To sign a judgment, is to enter a judgment for want of something 
  which was required to be done; as, for example, in the English practice, if 
  he who is bound to give oyer does not give it within the time required, in 
  such cases, the adverse party may sign judgment against him. 2 T. R. 40; 
  Com. Dig. Pleader, P 1; Barnes, 245.
