Etymology
Chambers's Twentieth Century Dictionary A.S. nægel; Ger. nagel.
Usage in poetry
Warm spring wind, spots of cheviot and mud,
Early naileries' hoots faraway,
On the grater of cobble-stones road,
As on radishes lavishly sprayed,
Tears stand out clearly at break of day.
Early naileries' hoots faraway,
On the grater of cobble-stones road,
As on radishes lavishly sprayed,
Tears stand out clearly at break of day.
"I hang limp on the Creator's pen" by Boris Pasternak
