Three Hundred Aesop's Fables, p. 51 · B2
“Very well, as far as I could judge from the sight of him.”
The Count of Monte Cristo, p. 6 · C1
The Hawk, interrupting him, said: “I should indeed have lost my senses if I should let go food ready in my hand, for the sake of pursuing birds which are not yet even within sight.”

The prisoner whom you there see pale, agitated, and alarmed, instead of—as is the case when a curtain falls on a tragedy—going home to sup peacefully with his family, and then retiring to rest, that he may recommence his mimic woes on the morrow,—is removed from your sight merely to be reconducted to his prison and delivered up to the executioner.
The Count of Monte Cristo, p. 48 · C1
