1. If you could choose an hour of wakefulness out of
   

the whole night, it would be this. Since your sober

bedtime, at eleven, you have had rest enough to

take off the pressure of yesterday's fatigue, while

before you, till the sun comes from "Far Cathay"

to brighten your window, there is almost the space

of a summer night—one hour to be spent in thought

with the mind's eye half shut, and two in pleasant

dreams, and two in that strangest of enjoyments

the forgetfulness alike of joy and woe.


(from “The Haunted Mind” by William Faulkner)

1. Every Sabbath morning in the summer-time I thrust
   

back the curtain to watch the sunrise stealing down

a steeple which stands opposite my chamber window.

First the weathercock begins to flash; then a fainter

lustre gives the spire an airy aspect; next it encroaches

on the tower and causes the index of the dial to glisten

like gold as it points to the gilded figure of the hour.


(from “Sunday at Home” by Nathaniel Hawthorne)

1. He no longer dreamed of storms, nor of women, nor
   

of great occurrences, nor of great fish, nor fights,

nor contests of strength, nor of his wife. He only

dreamed of places now and of the lions on the

beach.


(from The Old Man and The Sea by Ernest Hemingway)

1. There were a king with a large jaw and a queen with
   

a plain face, on the throne of England; there were a

king with a large jaw and a queen with a fair face, on

the throne of France. In both countries it was clearer

than crystal to the lords of the State preserves of

loaves and fishes, that things in general were settled

for ever.


(from A Tale of Two Cities by Charles Dickens)
