  6. 1905, Selous|Edmund Selous, ''Bird Watcher in the Shetlands/Chapter 15107|The Bird Watcher in the Shetlands'', p. 107 (OCLC):

  7. I question if any man ever saw his absent friend more clearly than did Shakespeare his ''Falstaff'', for instance, or Scott his ''Balfour of Burleigh''. But does it, therefore, follow that either of these great writers would, when hungry, have summoned up before him a clearer picture of his approaching dinner, than does the equally hungry or very much hungrier boor? This I doubt; and on the same principle I doubt if the said boor would see ''his'' dinner more clearly than a wolf, bear, or tiger would theirs when in quest of it.
