Cosette was a condensation of the auroral light in the form of a woman.
Victor Hugo
Les Misérables
That man who does not believe that each day contains an earlier, more sacred, and auroral hour than he has yet profaned, has despaired of life, and is pursuing a descending and darkening way.
Henry David Thoreau
Walden
Now only do I know you, O fair auroral skies—O morning dew upon the grass!
Walt Whitman
Leaves of Grass
A peculiar light circled around the horizon, white and thin like that often seen over the auroral corona, blending into the blue of the upper sky.
John Muir
My First Summer in the Sierra
