coign

From a sense of justice, I hastened to remunerate those who had been deprived of their coign of vantage, but, alas!

I went yesterday to the Piazza del Quirinale to see the royal processions come out of the palace and had a fine coign of vantage.

John from a coign of vantage saw approaching a young man in a gray German uniform, followed by four hussars, also in German gray.

The roar of the city mounted to their high coign only in a subdued murmur, as of the sea at a distance.

The lawyer jumped up and drew a protesting Emerald from her horsehair coign of vantage.
