   {Jointure}.]
   1. A joining; a union; an alliance. [Obs.] ``Devotional
      compliance and juncture of hearts.'' --Eikon Basilike.

   2. The line or point at which two bodies are joined; a joint;
      an articulation; a seam; as, the junctures of a vessel or
      of the bones. --Boyle.

   3. A point of time; esp., one made critical or important by a
      concurrence of circumstances; hence, a crisis; an
