prostration

Prostration following severe shock was what the doctor called it, but it looked to me more like a touch of brain fever.

Prostration rapidly increases until death puts an end to the patient's sufferings.

Prostration occurs much earlier and is usually much more marked in the latter.

Prostration is the Eastern mode of signifying profound respect, complete submission.

Prostration of ourselves before God produces a calm and dispassionate frame of mind, and a sense of our accountability.
