Bronze, iron, and glass are all pressed into the service, and occasionally we have at a lunch a whole military armament of cannon, muskets, swords, bronze helmets, whole suits of armor, Tazza for jewellery, miniature cases, inkstands, and powder-boxes, all to hold a few sugar-plums.
"Manners and Social Usages"
Mrs. John M. E. W. Sherwood
Some of you who read may have passed such marts in different parts of the city, or even have dropped in and purchased a bust or a Tazza for a surprisingly small sum.
"The Mahatma and the Hare"
H. Rider Haggard
After an ironic recitative, mostly addressed to Hamlet, the King leads off singing very solemnly and slowly the words "Requie ai defunti," and immediately afterwards in a most lively style, "e colmisi d'almo liquor la Tazza."
"Shakespeare and Music"
Christopher Wilson
