Knell \Knell\, v. i. [imp. & p. p. {Knelled}; p. pr. & vb. n.
{Knelling}.] [OE. knellen, knillen, As. cnyllan. See {Knell},
n.]
To sound as a knell; especially, to toll at a death or
funeral; hence, to sound as a warning or evil omen.

Not worth a blessing nor a bell to knell for thee.
--Beau. & Fl.

Yet all that poets sing, and grief hath known,
Of hopes laid waste, knells in that word, ``alone''.
--Ld. Lytton.
