Famous quotes containing the word rung:
“I caught this morning mornings minion, king-
dom of daylights dauphin, dapple-dawn-drawn Falcon, in his riding
Of the rolling level underneath him steady air, and striding
High there, how he rung upon the rein of a wimpling wing
In his ecstasy!”
—Gerard Manley Hopkins (18441889)
“Indeed, said the monk, a mass, a matins, and vespers well rung are half-said.”
—François Rabelais (14941553)
“Ere the bat hath flown
His cloistered flight, ere to black Hecates summons
The shard-born beetle with his drowsy hums
Hath rung nights yawning peal, there shall be done
A deed of dreadful note.”
—William Shakespeare (15641616)
