Consider Pope's line here:
Say, will the falcon, stooping from above,
Smit with her varying plumage, spare the dove?
Most of the old texts have it as stooping, and not, as we now know the word: swooping. Is this an alternative obsolete meaning for the word, or just a misprint?--Lmstearn (talk) 12:08, 21 August 2018 (UTC)
