And the jocund rebecs sound

To many a youth and many a maid

Dancing in the checkered shade.—Milton: L’Allegro.

Up the high hill he heaves a huge round stone;

The huge round stone, resulting with a bound,

Thunders impetuous down, and smokes along the ground.

Pope: Hom. Odys.

Which urged, and labored, and forced up with pain,

Recoils and rolls impetuous down, and smokes along the plain.

Dryden: Lucretius.
