From the book I'm currently reading

"Thousands of miles away in D.C., the bombs sounded like muffled heartbeats, a background cadence to my own pulse, drumming in terror."
--Tell Them I Didn't Cry by Jackie Spinner

Just curious--what do you prefer? Is the objection to "cadence" followed by "to"?

No objection. This is a vocabulary post -- a GOOD thing, finding one of our vocabulary words in print.
