darkling

pimeässä, pimeässä tapahtuva

synkkä darkness Darkness.
puhekieltä A creature that lives in the dark.
dark Dark; darkening.
1867, (w), (w):

And we are here as on a darkling plain

Swept with confused alarms of struggle and flight,

Where ignorant armies clash by night

So, out went the candle, and we were left darkling.

As the wakeful bird sings darkling.
