I feel as if something was reaching out of the graveyard to hold me-- something that wanted life--I don't like it--let's hurry.
The Golden Road by Montgomery, Lucy Maud View in context
In the middle of the graveyard stood a stone church with a green cupola where he used to go to mass two or three times a year with his father and mother, when a service was held in memory of his grandmother, who had long been dead, and whom he had never seen.
Crime And Punishment by Dostoyevsky, Fyodor View in context
So they followed and heard the music grow lively, saw the banners wave in the breeze again when the graveyard was passed, and watched the company file into the dilapidated old church that stood at the corner of three woodland roads.
Eight Cousins by Alcott, Louisa May View in context
