 Context examples 


Mina's morning and evening hypnotic answer is unvaried: lapping waves, rushing water, and creaking masts.

(Dracula, by Bram Stoker)

The wind roared high in the great trees which embowered the gates; but the road as far as I could see, to the right hand and the left, was all still and solitary: save for the shadows of clouds crossing it at intervals as the moon looked out, it was but a long pale line, unvaried by one moving speck.

(Jane Eyre, by Charlotte Brontë)
