Between them cross-bows stood, and engines wrought / To cast a stone, a quarry, or a dart, // From whence, like thunder's dint, or lightnings new, / Against the bulwarks stones and lances flew.

It was by dint of passing strength / That he moved the massy stone at length.

and read the naked shield,[…] Of every dint a sword had beaten in it, / And every scratch a lance had made upon it

Your helmet was dinted in as if by a great shot.

And, in that moment came one, fierce and wild of aspect, in dinted casque and rusty mail who stood and watched--ah God!
