Drip, trickle, gush, seep, ooze

These verbs grade liquid by speed and by thickness. Drip is one drop at a time; trickle is a thin steady line; pour is heavy and continuous; gush is fast and forceful. Seep is slow movement through a material, and ooze is slow movement of something thick. Getting this right is the difference between a leak and a flood.
