From Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary (1913) [web1913]:
Taste \Taste\, n.       1. The act of tasting; gustation.          2. A particular sensation excited by the application of a             substance to the tongue; the quality or savor of any             substance as perceived by means of the tongue; flavor; as,             the taste of an orange or an apple; a bitter taste; an             acid taste; a sweet taste.          3. (Physiol.) The one of the five senses by which certain             properties of bodies (called their taste, savor, flavor)             are ascertained by contact with the organs of taste.          Note: Taste depends mainly on the contact of soluble matter                with the terminal organs (connected with branches of                the glossopharyngeal and other nerves) in the                papill[91] on the surface of the tongue. The base of                the tongue is considered most sensitive to bitter                substances, the point to sweet and acid substances.          4. Intellectual relish; liking; fondness; -- formerly with             of, now with for; as, he had no taste for study.                         I have no taste Of popular applause.   --Dryden.          5. The power of perceiving and relishing excellence in human             performances; the faculty of discerning beauty, order,             congruity, proportion, symmetry, or whatever constitutes             excellence, particularly in the fine arts and             belles-letters; critical judgment; discernment.          6. Manner, with respect to what is pleasing, refined, or in             accordance with good usage; style; as, music composed in             good taste; an epitaph in bad taste.          7. Essay; trial; experience; experiment. --Shak.          8. A small portion given as a specimen; a little piece             tastted of eaten; a bit. --Bacon.          9. A kind of narrow and thin silk ribbon.          Syn: Savor; relish; flavor; sensibility; gout.          Usage: {Taste}, {Sensibility}, {Judgment}. Some consider                   taste as a mere sensibility, and others as a simple                   exercise of judgment; but a union of both is requisite                   to the existence of anything which deserves the name.                   An original sense of the beautiful is just as                   necessary to [91]sthetic judgments, as a sense of                   right and wrong to the formation of any just                   conclusions or moral subjects. But this [bd]sense of                   the beautiful[b8] is not an arbitrary principle. It is                   under the guidance of reason; it grows in delicacy and                   correctness with the progress of the individual and of                   society at large; it has its laws, which are seated in                   the nature of man; and it is in the development of                   these laws that we find the true [bd]standard of                   taste.[b8]                               What, then, is taste, but those internal powers,                            Active and strong, and feelingly alive To each                            fine impulse? a discerning sense Of decent and                            sublime, with quick disgust From things                            deformed, or disarranged, or gross In species?                            This, nor gems, nor stores of gold, Nor purple                            state, nor culture, can bestow, But God alone,                            when first his active hand Imprints the secret                            bias of the soul.                        --Akenside.          {Taste of buds}, [or] {Taste of goblets} (Anat.), the             flask-shaped end organs of taste in the epithelium of the             tongue. They are made up of modified epithelial cells             arranged somewhat like leaves in a bud.

The color, flavor, and                quality are dependent upon the treatment which the                leaves receive after being gathered. The leaves for                green tea are heated, or roasted slightly, in shallow                pans over a wood fire, almost immediately after being                gathered, after which they are rolled with the hands                upon a table, to free them from a portion of their                moisture, and to twist them, and are then quickly                dried. Those intended for black tea are spread out in                the air for some time after being gathered, and then                tossed about with the hands until they become soft and                flaccid, when they are roasted for a few minutes, and                rolled, and having then been exposed to the air for a                few hours in a soft and moist state, are finally dried                slowly over a charcoal fire. The operation of roasting                and rolling is sometimes repeated several times, until                the leaves have become of the proper color.

Tease \Tease\, v. t. [imp. & p. p. {Teased}; p. pr. & vb. n.       {Teasing}.] [AS. t[?]san to pluck, tease; akin to OD. teesen,       MHG. zeisen, Dan. t[91]se, t[91]sse. [fb]58. Cf. {Touse}.]       1. To comb or card, as wool or flax. [bd]Teasing matted             wool.[b8] --Wordsworth.          2. To stratch, as cloth, for the purpose of raising a nap;             teasel.          3. (Anat.) To tear or separate into minute shreds, as with             needles or similar instruments.          4. To vex with importunity or impertinence; to harass, annoy,             disturb, or irritate by petty requests, or by jests and             raillery; to plague. --Cowper.                         He . . . suffered them to tease him into acts                      directly opposed to his strongest inclinations.                                                                               --Macaulay.          Syn: To vex; harass: annoy; disturb; irritate; plague;                torment; mortify; tantalize; chagrin.          Usage: {Tease}, {Vex}. To tease is literally to pull or                   scratch, and implies a prolonged annoyance in respect                   to little things, which is often more irritating, and                   harder to bear, than severe pain. Vex meant originally                   to seize and bear away hither and thither, and hence,                   to disturb; as, to vex the ocean with storms. This                   sense of the term now rarely occurs; but vex is still                   a stronger word than tease, denoting the disturbance                   or anger created by minor provocations, losses,                   disappointments, etc. We are teased by the buzzing of                   a fly in our eyes; we are vexed by the carelessness or                   stupidity of our servants.                               Not by the force of carnal reason, But                            indefatigable teasing.                  --Hudibras.                               In disappointments, where the affections have                            been strongly placed, and the expectations                            sanguine, particularly where the agency of                            others is concerned, sorrow may degenerate into                            vexation and chagrin.                  --Cogan.          {Tease tenon} (Joinery), a long tenon at the top of a post to             receive two beams crossing each other one above the other.

They were obliged also to             receive the sacrament according to the usage of the Church             of England. --Blackstone.          {Test object} (Optics), an object which tests the power or             quality of a microscope or telescope, by requiring a             certain degree of excellence in the instrument to             determine its existence or its peculiar texture or             markings.          {Test paper}.             (a) (Chem.) Paper prepared for use in testing for certain                   substances by being saturated with a reagent which                   changes color in some specific way when acted upon by                   those substances; thus, litmus paper is turned red by                   acids, and blue by alkalies, turmeric paper is turned                   brown by alkalies, etc.             (b) (Law) An instrument admitted as a standard or                   comparison of handwriting in those jurisdictions in                   which comparison of hands is permitted as a mode of                   proving handwriting.          {Test tube}.

Trial is the wider term; test is a                   searching and decisive trial. It is derived from the                   Latin testa (earthen pot), which term was early                   applied to the fining pot, or crucible, in which                   metals are melted for trial and refinement.

The act of thinking; the exercise of the mind in any of             its higher forms; reflection; cogitation.                         Thought can not be superadded to matter, so as in                      any sense to render it true that matter can become                      cogitative.                                       --Dr. T.                                                                               Dwight.          2.

[Colloq.]                         If the hair were a thought browner.   --Shak.          Note: Thought, in philosophical usage now somewhat current,                denotes the capacity for, or the exercise of, the very                highest intellectual functions, especially those                usually comprehended under judgment.                            This [faculty], to which I gave the name of the                         [bd]elaborative faculty,[b8] -- the faculty of                         relations or comparison, -- constitutes what is                         properly denominated thought.         --Sir W.                                                                               Hamilton.          Syn: Idea; conception; imagination; fancy; conceit; notion;                supposition; reflection; consideration; meditation;                contemplation; cogitation; deliberation.
