Usage samples

Granice’s second brother, prince Ospero, a man of complicated personality and somewhat frail constitution, not only lacked ambition to the throne but so disliked the flavour of court life with its formality and artificial circumstances, that he stayed almost reclusively at his manor Watershade at the centre of the Ceald, Troicinet’s inner plain.
