dome

The houses of the Munchkins were odd-looking dwellings, for each was round, with a big dome for a roof.

Presently they heard a solemn Voice, that seemed to come from somewhere near the top of the great dome, and it said:

All they could see was a mass of towers and steeples behind the green walls, and high up above everything the spires and dome of the Palace of Oz.

But Anne, with her elbows on the window sill, her soft cheek laid against her clasped hands, and her eyes filled with visions, looked out unheedingly across city roof and spire to that glorious dome of sunset sky and wove her dreams of a possible future from the golden tissue of youth’s own optimism.
