Hence the practice developed of covering fires before retiring for the night. During the reign of William Ⅰ, a bell was sounded at sunset to give notice that the time had come to extinguish all fire and candles. This came to be called curfew, a word borrowed almost directly from the French “couvre feu,” which, in translation, is ‘cover the fire.’
