Grocott & Ward, comps. Grocott’s Familiar Quotations, 6th ed. 189-?.

Blast

His rage, not his love, in that frenzy is shown,
And the blast that blows loudest is soon overblown.
Smollett.—Song, Verse 1.

Sideral blast,
Vapour and mist, and exhalation hot,
Corrupt and pestilent.
Milton.—Par. Lost, Book X.
