Hvad behagas? — så kunde just min malmgård vara förträffligt passande — der finnas sju rum och kök, samt dessutom domestikrum och stall för 2:ne hästar.

1848, Oscar Andersson, Hildegard eller Mor och Dotter [Hildegard or Mother and Daughter], via the Swedish Literature Bank, page 27:

What is your wish? — well then, my suburban estate could be most excellently suitable — there are seven rooms and a kitchen, as well as servants' quarter and a stable for two horses.

En rad af domestikrum, slutligen, bildade en gränsmur mot vester och genom lätta, mohriska arkader hade man här vidsträckt utsigt, dels öfver staden Biskra, dels öfver hela oasens väldiga palmskog, bestående af cirka 200,000 större och mindre träd, såsom det uppgifves ur tillförlitliga källor.

1886, Adelaide Ehrnrooth, Två finskors lustvandringar i Europa och Afrika åren 1876–77 och 1884 [Two Finnish women’s pleasure walks in Europe and Africa in the years 1876–77 and 1884], via the Swedish Literature Bank, pages 158–159:

A series of servants' quarters, finally, formed a boundary wall to the west, and through light, Moorish arcades, one had here a broad view, partly over the town of Biskra, partly over the entire oasis's vast palm grove, consisting of about 200,000 larger and smaller trees, as is stated from reliable sources.

Sedan han fått åkerbruket i gång och kände sig belåten med det, byggde han huset med trettio rum. Nedre våningen innehöll kontoret eller »patrons räkenskapskammare», som det då hette. […] Dessutom låg kök och domestikrum på nedre botten.

1927, Elisabeth Kuylenstierna-Wenster, Sex friska viljor [Six healthy wills], via the Swedish Literature Bank, page 9:

Once he had gotten the farming up and running and felt satisfied with it, he built the house with thirty rooms. The ground floor contained the office or "the master’s accounting chamber," as it was called at the time. […] In addition, the kitchen and servants' quarters were located on the ground floor.
