And so, in a few minutes, I was at the South-Eastern wall, and looking out through The Great Embrasure towards the Three Silver-fire Holes, that shone before the Thing That Nods, away down, far in the South-East. Southward of this, but nearer, there rose the vast bulk of the South-East Watcher The Watching Thing of the South-East.
William Hope Hodgson - The Night Land

Sings our poet in the silver-fire verse of L'Imitation de Notre-Dame la Lune, wherein he asks Mais où sont les Lunes d'Antan.
James Huneker - Ivory Apes and Peacocks

And this I can well believe. And so, searching the road with my gaze, I passed beyond this Silent One, and past the place where the road, sweeping vastly to the South-East, was lit a space, strangely, by the light from the Silver-fire Holes.
William Hope Hodgson - The Night Land

And here will I tell how that the strange Quiet which did fill all the Land, seeming to brood within the night, was horrid beyond all the roarings which had passed over the darkness in the time that went before; so that it had given my spirit some rest and assurance to hear but the far-echoing, low thunder of the Great Laughter, or the whining which was used at times to sound in the night from the South-East, where were the Silver-fire Holes that opened before the Thing that Nods.
William Hope Hodgson - The Night Land
