            The whole body of the arts and sciences composes one

      an organ of sense, when its nerve is affected by some
      external body; esp., the act of exciting muscle fibers to
      contraction, by artificial stimulation; as, the irritation
      of a motor nerve by electricity; also, the condition of a
      muscle and nerve, under such stimulation.

   3. (Med.) A condition of morbid excitability or
      oversensitiveness of an organ or part of the body; a state

      or excessive or vitiated action.
