... back-hander on my chest from the sergeant. Then came a scrambling, rushing sound, which widened into a deep roar, shaking the ground beneath our feet, and then the big building at which we were gaping seemed to breathe out a monstrous sigh, and then it fell in, and tumbled to pieces, quietly, swiftly, and utterly, like a house ...
— We and the World, Part II. (of II.) - A Book for Boys • Juliana Horatia Ewing

... a closeness of relation with God she felt herself to be. Dion knew now that she had loved her mother, that she loved Robin, as she did not love him. If he were to die she would be very sorry, but she would not be very angry. No, she would be able to breathe out a "farewell!" simply, with a resignation comparable to that of the Greeks on those tombs which she loved, and then—she would concentrate ...
