- 1909, Frances Hodgson Burnett, chapter 13, in Jadwiga Włodarkiewiczówna, transl., Tajemniczy ogród:
- Wtedy Mary zrozumiała, że Dick chciał, by ten obrazek był symbolem. Chciał powiedzieć, że może być pewna, że jej dochowa tajemnicy. Ogród tajemniczy był jej gniazdkiem, ona zaś była mysikrólikiem. O! jakżeż lubiła szczerze tego dziwnego, prostego chłopca!
- Then Mary knew Dickon had meant the picture to be a message. He had meant that she might be sure he would keep her secret. Her garden was her nest and she was like a missel thrush. Oh, how she did like that queer, common boy!
