Drakestone

0.01 sec.

Drake´stone

A flat stone so thrown along the surface of water as to skip from point to point before it sinks; also, the sport of so throwing stones; - sometimes called ducks and drakes.

Internal earthquakes, that, not content with one throe, run along spasmodically, like boys playing at what is called drakestone.

- De Quincey.
