plowshare

I am gazing again upon the sepulchre of the old South, after the plowshare of war and reconstruction had run the last furrow.

I do not exaggerate very grossly when I say that a blacksmith would have hammered a plowshare out of his hard face.

He stepped to the adjoining field, and, selecting a clod with the steely polish of the plowshare upon it, threw it at the mare.

The beaver and the mink de42sert the streams whenever the plowshare disturbs the soil.

All his farming had been done with calloused hands on the plowshare.
