He awoke in the Dark Ages and smelt dawn in the dark, and knew he was
not wholly a slave.
What does 'smelt dawn' mean?
tnx
It suggests that the person referred to could smell the changes which come with the rising of the sun. It appears to be a figurative use of the word dawn.
@Setanta,
Unless, of course, "Dawn" is capitalized. Heh heh.
Dawn, go away i'm no good for you . . .
