The act of flowing.

The matter that flows.

An unnatural or excessive flow of blood or fluid toward
any organ; a determination.

A constantly varying indication.

The infinitely small increase or decrease of a variable or
flowing quantity in a certain infinitely small and constant period of
time; the rate of variation of a fluent; an incerement; a differential.

A method of analysis developed by Newton, and based on the
conception of all magnitudes as generated by motion, and involving in
their changes the notion of velocity or rate of change. Its results are
the same as those of the differential and integral calculus, from which
it differs little except in notation and logical method.
