Noun

repassion (uncountable)

    • 1860, Michael George Duignan, Positive Facts, Without a Shadow of Doubt:
      As it happens to fire, which by its efficacy fully compensates all repassion brought from the wood, so that, if fuel never fail, it is not diminished or extinguished; nay, rather as plenty of proportionate fuel increaseth, it is augmented.
