   • 2003, Dalene Matthee, Toorbos, Tafelberg, page 173:

     Anderkant die witpeer staan nog een met sy takke verstrengel in 'n ysterhout soos vashou aan mekaar.

     At the other side of the white pear stood another one with its branches tangled up in an ironwood olive, as if holding on to each other.
