Syn: To consider; ponder; weigh; revolve; study.
Usage: To Meditate, Contemplate, Intend. We meditate a
design when we are looking out or waiting for the
means of its accomplishment; we contemplate it when
the means are at hand, and our decision is nearly or
quite made. To intend is stronger, implying that we
have decided to act when an opportunity may offer. A
general meditates an attack upon the enemy; he
contemplates or intends undertaking it at the earliest
convenient season.
