PIPE, n. Eng. fife.

2. A long tube or hollow body applied to the veins and arteries of the body, and to many hollow bodies, particularly such as are used for conductors of water or other fluids.
3. A tube of clay with a bowl at one end used in smoking tobacco.
4. The organs of voice and respiration as in windpipe.
5. The key or sound of the voice.
