 * Examples ** from text:

1) One example is from the "Demon Pope" by Richard Garnett. The dungeon that Lucifer disguised as the pope is described as such, "The dungeon was not only dark, but horribly cold, and the poor devil in his present form had no latent store of infernal heat to draw upon." Pg. 9 BOT

2) Another example is from "La Siesta Del Martes" by Gabriel Marquez. It starts off with the description of the land the train is traveling through. It states, "The train sped off down the furious corridor of vermillion rocks, penetrating the banana plantations, ordered in symmetrical unending rows, and the air became humid since you could no longer feel the salt of the sea air." Pg. 96 BOT
