The trees grew taller as we went along, until the tops were out of sight. The trunks were of a dark red colour and the leaves were of pale ulfire. My father kept stopping to think. If left uninterrupted, he would remain for half a day in deep abstraction. My mother came out of Poolingdred, and was of a different stamp. She was beautiful, generous, and charming - but also active. She kept urging him on. This led to many disputes between them, which made me miserable.英文原著 · 《A Voyage to Arcturus》

We proceeded thus until the slender path we followed brought up into the great road that leads through the forest to the kennels and the new canal.英文原著 · 《From the Memoirs of a Minister of France》
It is absolutely impossible to give an analysis of _Lelia_. There really is no subject. The personages are not beings of flesh and blood. They are allegories strolling about in the garden of abstractions. Lelia is a woman who has had her trials in life. She has loved and been disappointed, so that she can no longer love at all. She reduces the gentle poet Stenio to despair. He is much younger than she is, and he has faith in life and in love.英文原著 · 《George Sand》
