† symphysy Obs. rare.
[irreg. ad. mod.L. symphysis: see prec.]
Union or fusion of two bodies or parts of a body.
1655–87H. More App. Antid. Ath. (1712) 233 The Dæmon..rather seems by temporaneous constriction to keep the parts together, than to join them by any permanent Symphysy. Ibid. 234 This..would be so, if the Devil, by a true Symphysy, could co-unite the parts; but if he only holds them together,..the parts of the body are no more coherent than a handful of sand. |
