Hostess: Nay, sure, he's not in hell: he's in Arthur's bosom, if ever man went to Arthur's bosom. A'made a finer end and went away an it had been any christom child; a' parted even just between twelve and one, even at the turning of the tide.

Anfitriã: Não, com certeza ele não está no inferno: ele está no peito de Arthur, se é que algum homem pudesse ir para o peito de Arthur. Teve um fim belo e partiu como se tivesse sido uma criança recém-batizada.  Partiu bem entre o meio-dia e uma hora, quando a maré começava a baixar. 

Exemplo moderno:  The tide is turning

Arkansas state representative Charlie Collins wants to make it legal for college staff to carry concealed weapons. He thinks that public opinion is in the process of changing and will soon be with him. At least that’s what I think he meant when he said,

“The tide is turning. It will soon be one of the changes we make to our concealed carry laws.” (http://americanenglishdoctor.com, 2 June 2017)
