excerpt 1
They were indeed an odd-looking party that assembled on the bank-
the birds with draggled feathers, the animals with their fur clinging
close to them, and all dripping wet, cross, and uncomfortable.
(Lewis Carroll, Alice's Adventures in Wonderland)
excerpt 2
At last he said,
"Master, my time is up; I must go home and see my poor mother once
more: so pray pay me my wages and let me go." And the master said,
"You have been a faithful and good servant, Hans, so you pay shall be
handsome." Then he gave him a lump of silver as big as his head.
(The Grimm Brothers, The Brothers Grimm Fairy Tales)
excerpt 3
During this dialogue the child had remained silent, her eyes roving
from one to the other, all the animation fading out of her face.
Suddenly she seemed to grasp the full meaning of what had been said.
Dropping her precious carpet-bag she sprang forward a step and
clasped her hands.
(Lucy Maud Montgomery, Anne of Green Gables)
