I remembered this little-used word today. It,s a mass of land(especially a rocky one) that juts out into the sea.
Henri... No man is an island, entire of itself; every man is a piece of the continent, a part of the main. If a clod be washed away by the sea, Europe is the less, as well as if a promontory were, as well as if a manor of thy friend's or of thine own were. Any man's death diminishes me, because I am involved in mankind; and therefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls; it tolls for thee. ...
. . .Henri... No man is an island, entire of itself; every man is a piece of the continent, a part of the main. . . .
No man is an island; he's a peninsula!
