鐘(zhong)(zhong)(zhong)(zhong)鈕(niu)蒲牢(lao),緊啃鐘(zhong)(zhong)(zhong)(zhong)首(shou)。傳說蒲牢(lao)是龍王(wang)第(di)(di)(di)(di)七子(zi),因喜好音(yin)樂,所以讓它做鐘(zhong)(zhong)(zhong)(zhong)鈕(niu),聆聽鐘(zhong)(zhong)(zhong)(zhong)聲,滿足(zu)其欲望。鐘(zhong)(zhong)(zhong)(zhong)體宏大(da),設鐘(zhong)(zhong)(zhong)(zhong)帶(dai)(dai)三(san)層(ceng) ,每(mei)層(ceng)設八(ba)(ba)(ba)個開(kai)光窗(chuang),第(di)(di)(di)(di)一層(ceng)窗(chuang)內(nei)鑄有(you)(you)陽文(wen)楷(kai)書“皇(huang)帝萬(wan)歲重臣千秋”,字體遒勁(jing)有(you)(you)力。第(di)(di)(di)(di)二層(ceng)窗(chuang)內(nei)記載著金國(guo)(guo)重臣名諱和鑄鐘(zhong)(zhong)(zhong)(zhong)時間。第(di)(di)(di)(di)一行(xing):武(wu)略(lve)將軍(jun)(jun)觀察與宮(gong)大(da)達;第(di)(di)(di)(di)二行(xing):定(ding)遠大(da)將軍(jun)(jun)同(tong)知完顏豪;第(di)(di)(di)(di)三(san)行(xing):鎮國(guo)(guo)將軍(jun)(jun)順天節度使;第(di)(di)(di)(di)四行(xing):駙馬都尉(wei)唐括貢;第(di)(di)(di)(di)五行(xing):吳(wu)國(guo)(guo)公(下泐);第(di)(di)(di)(di)六行(xing):大(da)定(ding)廿一年歲辛丑(chou)辰日;第(di)(di)(di)(di)七行(xing):丙子(zi)日戊子(zi)時鐘(zhong)(zhong)(zhong)(zhong)成(cheng)。第(di)(di)(di)(di)三(san)層(ceng)鐘(zhong)(zhong)(zhong)(zhong)帶(dai)(dai)內(nei)鑄有(you)(you)座式(shi)佛(fo)像32尊(zun)。鐘(zhong)(zhong)(zhong)(zhong)體下部是按方位排(pai)列的八(ba)(ba)(ba)卦紋。底(di)部由重弧紋將鐘(zhong)(zhong)(zhong)(zhong)口分為八(ba)(ba)(ba)瓣。鐘(zhong)(zhong)(zhong)(zhong)身(shen)共有(you)(you)佛(fo)像176尊(zun),乳釘(ding)紋136顆(ke)及其它紋飾,文(wen)化內(nei)涵十分豐富。
在鐘的頂部設有八個洞眼,是(shi)為鑄(zhu)(zhu)鐘時(shi)不至(zhi)于(yu)使(shi)(shi)鐘體破裂,還可(ke)以起到共鳴的作用(yong),不僅能使(shi)(shi)鐘聲(sheng)好聽,而且使(shi)(shi)鐘聲(sheng)宏遠,回首(shou)悠長。神奇的大鐘上下(xia)可(ke)發出不同的聲(sheng)音(yin),能從聲(sheng)音(yin)中分(fen)辨多(duo)種(zhong)音(yin)符,音(yin)波起伏,尾(wei)音(yin)長達五分(fen)鐘之久(jiu)。說明當時(shi)古人對鑄(zhu)(zhu)造學、聲(sheng)學已有相當高的水平(ping)。如此鐵鐘在國內外實為罕見,具有很高的藝術價值和科(ke)學研究價值。
