"I saw some very sharp words among them: bloody words . . . which sometimes return to the place from which they come- but with their throats cut; some terrifying words, and others rather unpleasant to look at. When they had all melted together, we heard: hin, hin, hin, hin, his, tick, tock, crack, brededin, brededac, frr, frrr, frrrr, bou, bou . . . trrrrrr, on, on, on, on, on, ououououon, Gog, Magog, and goodness knows what other barbarous sounds." - Francois Rabelais, The Histories of Gargantua and Pantagruel.
