   • 1871, William Dean Howells, A Day's Pleasure:

     Sometimes this choice company sits on the curbing that goes round the terrace at the elm-tree's foot, and then I envy every soul in it, — so tranquil it seems, so cool, so careless, so morrowless.

   • 1896, Émile Zola, translated by Ernest Alfred Vizetelly, Rome, volume 2, page 418:

     And then there is the people, which has suffered so much and suffers still, but is so used to suffering that it can seemingly conceive no idea of emerging from it, blind and deaf as it is, almost regretting its ancient bondage, and so ignorant, so abominably ignorant, which is the one cause of its hopeless, morrowless misery, for it has not even the consolation of understanding that if we have conquered and are trying to resuscitate Rome and Italy in their ancient glory, it is for itself, the people, alone.

   • 1954, J. R. R. Tolkien, The Fellowship of the Ring:

     […] and woods of nightshade morrowless.
