    • 1899, Gerhart Hauptmann, translated by Jan Kasprowicz, Dzwon zatopiony: baśń dramatyczna, E. Lubowski i S-ka, archived from the original on 2022-08-08, page 110:
       Weź pochodnię w rękę
      i świeć mi... Prędzej! Ci niewysłowieni
      gdy tak panują wrogowie – a widzę,
      że coś podgryza fundament budowy –
      mistrz działać winien, nie w rozkoszy tonąć.
       Take a torch in your hand
      and give me light... Faster! When these unspeakable
      enemies have power – and I see
      that something is gnawing at the foundation of the construction –
      a master is obligated to work, not drown in pleasure.
