Still believe that ever round you
  Spirits float who watch and wait;
    Nor forget the twain who found you
      Sleeping nigh the Golden Gate.
      - Case of Mr. Lucraft and other Tales
         (p. 92), (ed. 1877) [Sleep]

The largest and most solid of all the substantial houses in Carnarvon Square, Bloomsbury, is Number Fifteen, which, by reason of its corner position (Mulgrave Street intersecting it at right angles at this point), has been enabled to stretch itself out at the back. It is a house which a man who wanted to convey the idea of a solid income without ostentation or attempt at fashion would find the very thing to assist his purpose.
      - The Golden Butterfly (ch. 1)
        [Books (First Lines)]

"What do you think, chief?"
      - The Golden Butterfly (prologue)
        [Books (First Lines)]
