mists around us looked like sky
It is probable that during a part of the stage the mists around us looked like sky clouds to those in the lower regions.
— from Passages from the American Notebooks, Volume 1 by Nathaniel Hawthorne

many an undulating line lay soft
The little wooded promontory that flanked the park, with the higher hill, starting up from the isthmus over which the road passed, rose grandly up, like two towering steps, towards the glittering heavens; and beyond the sloping fields and their hedgerow elms, with many an undulating line, lay soft and obscure, in the sheeny moonlight, as far as a spot where, half-way up the higher hill in front, the extreme horizontal line of the distant country cut upon the sky.
— from The Gipsy: A Tale (Vols I & II) by G. P. R. (George Payne Rainsford) James
