Note :
Upon conveys a more distinct notion that on carries with it of something that literally or metaphorically bears or supports .
It is less employed than it used to be ,
on having for the most part taken its place .
Some expressions formed with it belong only to old style ;
as ,
upon pity they were taken away ;
that is ,
in consequence of pity :
upon the rate of thirty thousand ;
that is ,
amounting to the rate :
to die upon the hand ;
that is ,
by means of the hand :
he had a garment upon ;
that is ,
upon himself :
the time is coming fast upon ;
that is ,
upon the present time .
By the omission of its object ,
upon acquires an adverbial sense ,
as in the last two examples .
[
1913 Webster ]
{
To assure upon } (
Law ),
to promise ;
to undertake .
{
To come upon }.
See under {
Come }.
{
To take upon },
to assume .
