Intestine
INTEST'INE, a. [L. intestinus, from intus, within.]
1. Internal; inward; opposed to external; applied to the human or other animal body; as an intestine disease.
2. Internal with regard to a state or country; domestic, not foreign; as intestine feuds; intestine war; intestine enemies. It is to be remarked that this word is usually or always applied to evils. We never say, intestine happiness or prosperity; intestine trade,manufactures or bills; but intestine broils, trouble, disorders, calamities, war, etc. We say, internal peace, welfare, prosperity, or internal broils,war, trade, etc. This restricted use of intestine seems to be entirely arbitrary.
INTEST'INE, n. Usually in the plural, intestines. The bowels; the canal or tube that extends, with convolutions, from the right orifice of the stomach to the anus.
