    • 1900, Anonymous, Nędznicy [The Miserables], translation of Les Misérables by Victor Hugo:
      Ale niektórzy byli jeszcze ciekawi, myśląc, że prawdopodobnie nie chodziło o bajeczne skarby legendy, ale o lepszą i dotykalniejsza gratkę niż banknoty djabła, że prawdopodobnie dróżnik odkrył jakąś tajemnicę. Najbardziej zaciekawionemi byli bakałarz i karczmarz Thenardier, który żył w przyjaźni ze wszystkimi i nie gardził stosunkami z Boulatruellem.
      Some persons, however, were still curious, surmising that in all this there was probably no fabulous treasure of the legends, but some fine windfall of a more serious and palpable sort than the devil's bank-bills, and that the road-mender had half discovered the secret. The most "puzzled" were the school-master and Thenardier, the proprietor of the tavern, who was everybody's friend, and had not disdained to ally himself with Boulatruelle.
