Excerpt from Œuvres Complètes de Gustave Flaubert, Vol. 5: La Tentation de Saint Antoine
Le ciel est rouge, la terre complètement noire. Sous les rafales du vent des traînées de sable se lèvent comme de grands linceuls, puis retombent. Dans une éclaircie, tout à coup, passent des oiseaux formant un bataillon triangulaire.
