The physical whole of a living thing. Also the main matter of a work, as against its head and foot.

One, considered apart from the group it belongs to. The individual is not the opposite of the collective; it is the other end of the same attention.

One who takes part, and holds a share by taking part. Named for their presence in the thing rather than their use of it.

A thing of which there is only ever one instance. Singleness enforced by design rather than by chance.

Upright and in effect — what remains true until changed by the word that made it; a law's, or a lamp's, present state.
