Is it seize you react on?

seize (siːz)

— vb ( on ) (sometimes foll by on or upon ) (often foll by up ) (usually foll by of )
1. to take hold of quickly; grab: she seized her hat and ran for the bus
2. to grasp mentally, esp rapidly: she immediately seized his idea
3. to take mental possession of: alarm seized the crowd
4. to take possession of rapidly and forcibly: the thief seized the woman's purse
5. to take legal possession of; take into custody
6. to take by force or capture: the army seized the undefended town
7. to take immediate advantage of: to seize an opportunity

But hey, I'm the first to admit that English is not my mother tongue so feel free to correct me.


Hmm, doing a little search and I begin to wonder if it should be "cease". But that means stop or bring to an end. But my amazement continues, hence it grabs my intellectual faculties. No?
