    • 1830, Alfred Tennyson, “The Kraken”, in Poems, Chiefly Lyrical:
      Below the thunders of the upper deep;
      Far far beneath in the abysmal sea,
      His antient, dreamless, uninvaded sleep,
      The Kraken sleepeth: […]
      There hath he lain for ages and will lie
      Battening upon huge seaworms in his sleep […]
