Examples

“On a high hill they stood / Abraham and young cousin Lot / Looking over the country of Canaan / The land⟳ smiled in the Jordan plain / Softly she whispered to him; / “Choose⟳ the green pastures of the plain” / Lot took that choice at once / It seemed so good to them / Together with their little girls / Into Sodom they went / Happy, browneyed, darkhaired girls / Who would be their husband?”

“Our cottage has been rented again; as I write⟳ this the new family is arriving on the terrace and Annamaria wants to put⟳ the little darkhaired boys in the hammock before she takes it down and folds it up, but the children are afraid; they’ve never seen anything like⟳ that.”
