hanging (adj.)
Marriage and hanging go by destiny; matches are made in heaven.
Wedding is destiny,
And hanging likewise.
Hanging and wiving goes by destiny.
Hanging of his cat on Monday
For killing of a mouse on Sunday.
And fast by, hanging in a golden chain,
This pendent world, in bigness as a star
Of smallest magnitude, close by the moon.
Hanging was the worst use a man could be put to.
