To issue with violence and rapidity, as a fluid; to rush forth as a fluid from confinement; as, blood gushes from a vein in venesection. Behold, he smote the rock, that the waters gushed out. Psalm 78:20.

To flow copiously. Tears gushed from her eyes.

To emit in copious effusion. The gaping wound gushed out a crimson flood.

A sudden and violent issue of a fluid from an inclosed place; an emission of liquor in a large quantity and with force; the fluid thus emitted.
