One night he had made his mother roll him about, till she fell asleep, and even then he kept crying, "Roll me around! roll me around!" His mother pushed him about in her sleep, until she fell too soundly aslumbering; then she stopped. But Little Jack Rollaround kept on crying, "Roll around! roll around!"英文原著 · 《How To Tell Stories To Children》

1854. A Reversible Rolling Mill without Fly-wheel. This Rolling Mill consists of two combined steam-engines, acting on cranks at right angles, the reversing of the rolls being effected by the link motion. The requisite rolling power is obtained by suitable wheel and pinion gear, so as to be entirely independent of the momentum of a fly-wheel, which is entirely dispensed with. I did not patent the invention.英文原著 · 《An Autobiography》
The old Statutes or Acts of Parliament that are of Record, as is before said, are entred either upon the proper Statute Roll, or some other Roll in Chancery. The first Statute Roll which we have, is in the Tower, and begins with Magna Charta, and ends with Edw. and is called Magnus Rotulus Statutor'. There are five other Statute Rolls in that Office, of the Times of Richard 2. Henry 4. and Edw. I shall now give a Scheme of those ancient Statutes of the Times of Henry 3. and Edw.英文原著 · 《The History of the Common Law of England》
Nothing is more charming than the sounding of the reveille in Paris. It is dawn. One hears first, nearby, a roll of drums, followed by the blast of a bugle, exquisite melody, winged and warlike. Then all is still. In twenty seconds the drums roll again, then the bugle rings out, but further off. Then silence once more. An instant later, further off still, the same song of bugle and drum falls more faintly but still distinctly upon the ear. Then after a pause the roll and blast are repeated, very far away.英文原著 · 《The Memoirs of Victor Hugo》
Grushnitski went in front, his seconds behind him, and then the doctor and I. "I am surprised at you," said the doctor, pressing my hand vigorously. "Let me feel your pulse! Feverish! But nothing noticeable on your countenance . only your eyes are gleaming more brightly than usual."
Suddenly small stones rolled noisily right under our feet. What was it? Grushnitski had stumbled; the branch to which he was clinging had broken off, and he would have rolled down on his back if his seconds had not held him up.英文原著 · 《A Hero of Our Time》
Red Wull jumped down from the table, and, in doing so, brushed against the Cup. It toppled* over on to the floor, and rolled tinkling away in the dust. And the little man fled madly out of the house, still screaming his war-song. When, late that night, M'Adam returned home, the Cup was gone. Down on his hands and knees he traced out its path, plain to see, where it had rolled along the dusty floor. Beyond that there was no sign. At first he was too much overcome to speak. Then he raved round the room like a derelict ship, Red Wull following uneasily behind.英文原著 · 《Bob Son of Battle》
