gnashing your teeth
The dog was gnashing a carpet
to gnash the air in fury
There they were, boiling up in snowy spouts of spray, smiting and gnashing together like the gleaming teeth of hell.1886 October – 1887 January, H[enry] Rider Haggard, She: A History of Adventure, London: Longmans, Green, and Co., published 1887, →OCLC:
