The edge or border of something, or to be on the brink of doing or experiencing something.
Where the word comes from
From Old French *verge*, meaning a rod or wand, derived from Latin *virga*, also meaning rod or stick.

The word entered Middle English around the 13th century with these overlapping meanings of both a measuring rod and the edge of something.
