Witness the marvels of Parrott, Dahlgren, and Rodman.
From The Earth To The Moon by Verne, Jules View in context
I see the sickening wall of weapons now; I see that advancing host as I saw it then, I see the hate in those cruel eyes; I remember how I drooped my head upon my breast, I feel again the sudden earthquake shock in my rear, administered by the very ram I was sacrificing myself to save; I hear once more the typhoon of laughter that burst from the assaulting column as I clove it from van to rear like a Sepoy shot from a Rodman gun.
A Tramp Abroad by Twain, Mark View in context
