function (n.)
activity, action, performance
Ham II.ii.553[Hamlet alone, of the First Player] his whole function suiting / With forms to his conceit
Mac I.iii.140[Macbeth to himself] My thought ... / Shakes so my single state of man / That function is smothered in surmise [i.e. my imaginings take away my power to act]
