Examples from texts

A cry for justice arose from every lip, for justice upon this earth, justice for those who hunger and thirst, whom alms are weary of relieving after eighteen hundred years of Gospel teaching, and who still and ever lack bread to eat.
Un cri de justice montait de toutes les lèvres, la justice sur cette terre, la justice pour ceux qui ont faim, que l’aumône est lasse de secourir depuis dix-huit siècles d’évangile, et qui n’ont toujours pas de pain à manger.

Now, no sulks, ye see; keep stiff upper lip, boys; do well by me, and I'll do well by you."

The blood rushed to her face, as much with resentment, perhaps, as with shame, and she bit her lip, though she continued silent.
Son visage se couvrit d’une rougeur subite, autant peut-être par suite de ressentiment que de honte ; elle se mordit les lèvres, mais elle continua de garder le silence.

It is a comical effect when we are in charge of Sergeant Vigile, a nice little boy, with a dab on his lip by way of mustache. When we were in quarters the other day, he played at skipping-rope with the kiddies.
Cela fait un drôle d’effet quand nous sommes conduits par notre sergent Vigile, un gentil petit garçon qui a un peu de moustache peinte sur la lèvre, et qui, l’autre jour, au cantonnement, sautait à la corde, avec des gosses.
