    • 1852, Лев Толстой , “Глава VII. Охота”, in Детство; English translation from Leo Wiener, transl., Childhood, 1904:
      Необозри́мое, блестя́ще-жёлтое по́ле замыка́лось то́лько с одно́й стороны́ высо́ким, сине́ющим ле́сом, кото́рый тогда́ каза́лся мне са́мым отдалённым, таи́нственным ме́стом, за кото́рым и́ли конча́ется свет, и́ли начина́ются необита́емые стра́ны.
      Neobozrímoje, blestjášče-žóltoje póle zamykálosʹ tólʹko s odnój storoný vysókim, sinéjuščim lésom, kotóryj togdá kazálsja mne sámym otdaljónnym, taínstvennym méstom, za kotórym íli končájetsja svet, íli načinájutsja neobitájemyje strány.
      The immeasurable, bright yellow field was closed in only on one side by a tall, bluish forest which then appeared to me as a most distant and mysterious place, beyond which either the world came to an end, or uninhabitable countries began.
