Examples from texts

There was nothing poignant, nothing acute about it; but there was a feeling of permanence, of eternity about it; it brought a foretaste of hopeless years of this cold leaden misery, a foretaste of an eternity "on a square yard of space."
В ней не было чего-нибудь особенно едкого, жгучего; но от нее веяло чем-то постоянным, вечным, предчувствовались безысходные годы этой холодной, мертвящей тоски, предчувствовалась какая-то вечность на "аршине пространства".

The Insulted and Injured
Dostoevsky, Fyodor
She had had a foretaste of the joys of loving passionately and torturing the man that she loved simply because she loved him, and that was why, perhaps, she was in haste to be the first to sacrifice herself.
Она предвкушала наслаждение любить без памяти и мучить до боли того, кого любишь, именно за то, что любишь, и потому-то, может быть, и поспешила отдаться ему в жертву первая.
