For a long time I knew how the day went, by the imperious clangour of midday and evening bells striking down upon the houses and the edge of the lake. 很长一段时间里,午钟和晚钟急迫的敲着,钟声传向千家万户,穿向湖畔。
The death-devoted moved, to clangour rude Of drum and horn, and dissonant clash of mail.
那不惧死亡的步伐,发出粗鲁的丁当声夹杂着战鼓声和号角声,还有那盔甲刺耳的碰撞声。

The bell itself was just upon the other side of the wall, it responded to his activity, and scattered an alarming clangour far and wide into the night.
钟本身就在墙的另一边,它响应他的活动,并在深夜中发出令人震惊的叮当声。
新天方夜谭(下)
Perhaps the same fellow who had made so horrid a clangour in the darkness not half-an-hour before, now sent up the merriest cheer to greet the coming day.
