And as the mighty hill of the body did come into length against the great cliff-side, the Beast set the eye-stalks into this cave and that, as it did go, and into all Crannies; and so lengthened upward very straight and monstrous and dreadful unto us, and did be as a white and mildewed hill, that had an horrid life.
"The Night Land"
William Hope Hodgson
They are sure of what they say, because although the oldest man alive only heard about it from the oldest man when he was a baby, they still find shells in the Crannies of the rocks far beyond the maddest reach of the sea: and somebody once found the remains of a whale at the very top of a high mountain.
"Grenfell: Knight-Errant of the North"
Fullerton Waldo
The old Manor offered a splendid field for the purpose; it was so full of cupboards and Crannies and odd nooks that it was quite hard to find anybody.
