    • 1875, Николай Лесков [Nikolai Leskov], “Глава десятая”, in На краю света; English translation from Alfred Edward Chamot, transl., On the Edge of the World, 1923:
      Все предме́ты на́чали принима́ть невероя́тные, огро́мные разме́ры и очерта́ния: на́ши сала́зки торча́ли как корабе́льный о́стов; заиндеве́лая до́хлая соба́ка каза́лась спя́щим бе́лым медве́дем, а дере́вья как бы о́жили и ста́ли переходи́ть с ме́ста на ме́сто...
      Vse predméty náčali prinimátʹ neverojátnyje, ogrómnyje razméry i očertánija: náši salázki torčáli kak korabélʹnyj óstov; zaindevélaja dóxlaja sobáka kazálasʹ spjáščim bélym medvédem, a derévʹja kak by óžili i stáli perexodítʹ s mésta na mésto...
      Every object assumed extraordinary and huge proportions and outlines; our little sledge looked like the hull of a ship, the frost-covered carcass of the dead dog looked like a sleeping white bear; while the trees appeared to have come to life and were moving about from place to place. . . .
