Emily Dickinson Lexicon

JUMP, v.i. [Qu. the root of It. zampillare, to spring.]

1. To leap; to skip; to spring. Applied to men, it signifies to spring upward or forward with both feet, in distinction from hop, which signifies to spring with one foot. A man jumps over a ditch; a beast jumps over a fence. A man jumps upon a horse; a goat jumps from rock to rock.
2. To spring over any thing; to pass to at a leap. Here, upon this bank and shelve of time, / We'd jump the life to came. – Shak. We see a little, presume a great deal, and so jump to the conclusion. – Spectator.
3. To bound; to pass from object to object; to jolt. The noise of the rattling of the wheels, and of the prancing horses, and of the jumping chariots. – Nahum iii.
4. To agree; to tally; to coincide. In some sort it jumps with my humor. – Shak. [This use of the word is now vulgar, and in America, I think it is confined to the single phrase, to jump in judgment.]
