The racing had many remarkable features, but I am concerned to relate only those in which Palus took part. At once after the procession he drove in the first race, always a perilous honor. When we saw the chariots dart out of the starting-stalls, the Crimson emerged from the stall furthest to the left, just that which is the worst possible position from which to start.
Well nothing would do, but when we were all merry with ale, we should all go and see the Oubliette, and a kiss of the bride was promised to the one who should go down the furthest. Now, the stone steps were very narrow at best; and were all worn away and that was the best of it all along the passages we went, and past the dungeon grating, till we came to the open mouth of the Oubliette.

One blue day, when the furthest places on sea and land lay in a thin, still haze, my mother and I went to the Watchman to romp.
Out of all this in New York came a board of electrical control, a conduit system, and in the final analysis the Public Service Commission, that is credited to Governor Hughes as the furthest development of utility corporation control. The "road to yesterday" back to Edison and his insistence on underground wires is a long one, but the preceding paragraph traces it.
Each man appropriated a vacant corner of the hut in which to spread his simple couch, the negro taking care to secure that furthest from the door.
Tintaggon, I have conquered all the stars, my song swells through all the space besides, I come victorious from Mahn and Khanagat on the furthest edge of the worlds, and thou and I are to be equal lords when the old gods are gone and the green earth knoweth Slid.
