For my part, I love a dark night, with a star here and there winking at us, as much as to say, 'I see you, my boys, but I won't say a word about it,' and a small, pattering, drizzling, Mizzling rain, that prevents Little John's hoofs being heard, and covers one's retreat, as it were.
"Paul Clifford, Volume 3."
Edward Bulwer-Lytton
The thunder was much louder than last night's, and a slight Mizzling rain for about an hour fell.
