Examples from texts

Even though Germany's brow be garlanded with a wreath of laurel, on the day that she comes to herself she will hang her head to think of the deutsche Treue [the German loyalty] which was her pride."
Quand l'Allemagne aura recouvré le sang-froid et eût-elle ceint son front de la couronne de laurier, elle baissera la tête en songeant à cette deutsche Treue, cette « Loyauté allemande » qui était son orgueil.

And it was so warm, too, beside the big laurel-bush, in the corner where the streamlet of water ever fell with flute-like music from the gaping, tragic mask.

On these occasions Benedetta was usually the first to return to the house, and Pierre would linger alone under the laurels, vaguely dreaming of sweet, sad things.
D’ordinaire, Benedetta remontait la première à son appartement, et Pierre s’attardait parfois, restait seul sous le laurier, dans le léger parfum de femme qu’elle laissait. Il rêvait confusément à des choses douces et tristes.

Your good father would be sore grieved did he find me interfering to sully or carry off the laurels he is about to win; and I cannot command the Corporal without equally commanding the Sergeant.
Votre excellent père serait vivement offensé s’il me surprenait portant la main sur les lauriers qu’il est au moment de cueillir, et je ne puis donner des ordres au caporal sans en donner en même temps au sergent.

To this speech no reply was made, but it was evidently little relished by the ladies of the family, who were a good deal jealous of the laurels of the only hero their race had ever produced.

With laurels about his head he would have resembled a Roman emperor, very handsome and master of the world, as though indeed the blood of Augustus pulsated in his veins.
La tête laurée, il aurait rappelé les têtes des empereurs romains, très beau et maître du monde, comme si le sang d’Auguste avait battu dans ses veines.
