Example

Es waren jene, die von den Verstecken der Seevögel handelten, von jenen einsamen Felsen und Klippen, welche nur sie allein bewohnen, von der Küste Norwegens, die von ihrer äußersten südlichen Spitze, dem Lindesnäs bis zum Nordkap mit Inseln besäet ist.They were those which treat of the haunts of sea-fowl; of " the solitary rocks and promontories " by them only inhabited; of the coast of Norway, studded with isles from its southern extremity, the Lindeness, or Naze, to the North Cape-- " Where the Northern Ocean, in vast whirls, Boils round the naked, melancholy isles Of farthest Thule; and the Atlantic surge Pours in among the stormy Hebrides."OP646
» Nein, sie bewohnen eine Reihe kleinerer Gemächer an der Hinterseite des Hauses; hier schläft niemand; man möchte beinahe glauben, daß wenn wir in Thornfield-Hall einen Geist hätten, dies sein Schlupfwinkel wäre. «" No; they occupy a range of smaller apartments to the back; no one ever sleeps here: one would almost say that, if there were a ghost at Thornfield Hall, this would be its haunt."OP53387
