    • 1901, John Richard Green, Leslie Stephen, Letters:
      It is such a joy to see the trees all breaking into green again—you know my view at the back, well it is getting quite gardenish and rural, there is a cherrytree close by me that gladdens me every morning as I go out to look at it.
    • 2013, Colm Toibin, New Ways to Kill Your Mother: Writers and Their Families:
