In my view, the Christian religion is the most important and one of the first things in which all children, under a free government ought to be instructed... No truth is more evident to my mind than that the Christian religion must be the basis of any government intended to secure the rights and privileges of a free people. Preface to 1828 Dictionary

1913 Definition
A goad; hence,
something that rouses the mind or spirits; an incentive; as, the hope
of gain is a powerful stimulus to labor and action.
That which excites or produces a temporary
increase of vital action, either in the whole organism or in any of
its parts; especially (Physiol.), any substance or agent
capable of evoking the activity of a nerve or irritable muscle, or
capable of producing an impression upon a sensory organ or more
particularly upon its specific end organ.
* Of the stimuli applied to the sensory apparatus, physiologists distinguish two kinds: (a) Homologous stimuli, which act only upon the end organ, and for whose action the sense organs are especially adapted, as the rods and cones of the retina for the vibrations of the either. (b) Heterologous stimuli, which are mechanical, chemical, electrical, etc., and act upon the nervous elements of the sensory apparatus along their entire course, producing, for example, the flash of light beheld when the eye is struck.
