Examples from texts

One evening, when a shower had surprised them, the sun, showing behind the downpour, lit up the whole rain cloud, and upon their heads there fell a spray of glowing water, irisated with pink and azure.
Un soir qu’une averse venait de les surprendre, le soleil, reparaissant derrière la pluie, alluma la nuée tout entière, et il n’y eut plus sur leurs têtes que cette poussière d’eau embrasée, qui s’irisait de bleu et de rose.

On the grass, amidst all the summer vegetation, lay a nude woman with one arm supporting her head, and though her eyes were closed she smiled amidst the golden shower that fell around her.
Là, sur l’herbe, au milieu des végétations de juin, une femme nue était couchée, un bras sous la tête, enflant la gorge; et elle souriait, sans regard, les paupières closes, dans la pluie d’or qui la baignait.

Soudain, au plus fort de ce vacarme muet, une main, ne se maîtrisant plus, s'abat sur le clavier, une gerbe de notes fuse.
