Help?

(sentence)

Now she tugged off the material over her breasts, and threw it away, exposing her ample chest in all its glory; all, that is, except for the nipples, each covered by a small pad from which hung a small gold tassle.

(Should that be hung or hanged?).

Hung.

Just my lowly opinion, though. Let's wait for the grammar kings. emoticon

Re: Help?

Pretty sure it's "hung" as well. Or "dangled".

Re: Help?

"Hanged" is used when it's a person being executed (in Britain; maybe not in America). For everything else, it's "hung".
