Quoit

He heard then a warm heavy sigh, softer, as she turned over and the loose brass quoits of the bedstead jingled. Must get those settled really.

This quoit was brought from a karn about a furlong distance, near which is another cromlech, not so large.

Then, to preſerve the Fame of ſuch a deed, / For Python ſlain, he [Phoebus or Apollo] Pythian Games decreed. / Where Noble Youths for Maſterſhip ſhou'd ſtrive, / To Quoit, to Run, and Steeds and Chariots drive.

Each took / His ſtation, and Epeüs ſeized the clod. / He ſwung, he caſt it, and the Greecians laugh'd. / Leonteus, branch of Mars, quoited it next.
