İhtiyar meşe ağaçlarının; nemnâk taşları örten kesif ve mütevahhiş çalılar üstüne zümridîn ve muhtez benekler hâlinde gölgeleri düşüyor, yeni çıkan narin ve şeffaf otlar çağlayanın muhrik ve muğfil ninnisiyle nazan bir hab-ı masum uyuyordu.
Kaldırım taşları önce benek benek koyulaştı, sonra büsbütün ıslanıp parlayarak üzerlerine düşen her ışığı titrek bir ayna gibi geri verir oldu.
The paving stones first darkened in spots; then, soaked through and gleaming, they came to give back every light that fell on them, like a trembling mirror.
