   • 1992, Wiesław Myśliwski, The palace, page 109:

     I see a singing darkness in my unseeing eyes. Of neither water, nor earth, nor night. It quivers, densens, then explodes in black. Then it falls away in strings of rippling beads. And again it quivers, densens. Can you hear it?

   • 2004, Quentin van Marle, Boomerang Road: A Pedalling Pom's Australian Odyssey, page 45:

     Traffic densens as the morning ticks on. Trucks roar past on the nearside lane, but I'm well protected by a decent width of shoulder.
