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)

2. every sabbath morning in the summer-time i thrust

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)

3. 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)

4. there were a king with a large jaw and a queen with
a plain face, on the throne of england; there were a

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)
