At half-past nine on this Saturday evening, the parlour of the Salutation Inn, High Holborn, contained most of its customary visitors.(..)In former days every tavern of repute kept such a room for its own select circle, a club, or society, of habitués, who met every evening, for a pipe and a cheerful glass.

(..) for what lady can abide to love a spruce silken-face courtier, that stands every morning two or three hours learning how to look by his glass, how to speak by his glass, how to sigh by his glass, how to court his mistress by his glass? I would wish him no other plague, but to have a mistress as brittle as glass.

Haviers, or stags which have been gelded when young, have no horns, as is well known, and in the early part of the stalking season, when seen through a glass, might be mistaken for hummels (..)

The glass is falling hour by hour.

She would not live / The running of one glass.

JUDD. Any trouble last night?

LES. Usual. Couple of punks got glassed.

I often mused on what the politicians or authorities would say if they could see for themselves the horrendous consequences of someone who’d been glassed, or viciously assaulted.

“The Covenant don’t ‘miss’ anything when they glass a planet,” the Master Chief replied.

Andy took his binoculars and glassed the area below.

Happy to glass themselves in such a mirror.

Where the Almighty's form glasses itself in tempests.
