... from just the first line???

1. Marley was dead, to begin with. There is no doubt whatever about that.

2. It was seven o'clock of a very warm evening in the Seeonee hills when Father Wolf woke up from his day's rest, scratched himself, yawned, and spread out his paws one after the other to get rid of the sleepy feeling in their tips.

3. Call me Ishmael.

4. All children, except one, grow up.

5. When Mary Lennox was sent to Misselthwaite Manor to live with her uncle everybody said she was the most disagreeable-looking child ever seen.

6. Once there were four children whose names were Peter, Susan, Edmond and Lucy.

8. The first place that I can well remember was a large, pleasant meadow with a pond of clear water in it.

9. “TOM”!

10. Buck did not read the newspapers or he would have known that trouble was brewing, not alone for himself, but for every tide-water dog, strong of muscle and with warm, long hair, from Puget Sound to San Diego.

11. It was a bright cold day in April, and the clocks were striking thirteen.

12. It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a good fortune, must be in want of a wife.

13. I am an invisible man.

14. Last night I dreamt I went to Manderly again.

15. The boy with fair hair lowered himself down the last few feet of rock and began to pick his way towards the lagoon.

16. No one would have believed in the last years of the nineteenth century that this world was being watched keenly and closely by intelligences greater than man's and yet as mortal as his own; that as men busied themselves about their various concerns they were scrutinised and studied, perhaps almost as narrowly as a man with a microscope might scrutinise the transient creatures that swarm and multiply in a drop of water.

17. Not so long ago, a monster came to the small town of Castle Rock, Maine.

18. If you want to find Cherry Tree Lane all you have to do is ask a policeman at the crossroads.

19. Dorothy lived in the midst of the great Kansas prairies, with Uncle Henry, who was a farmer, and Aunt Em, who was the farmer’s wife.

20. The great fish moved silently through the night water, propelled by short sweeps of its crescent tail.
