- 1953, Josep Pla, Les hores:
- En el meu llibre El vent de garbí he parlat llargament de la rotació dels vents seguint el camí del sol: el gregal del matí arrossegant sobre els seus lloms tritons i sirenes, cargols d'escuma, lluïssors rutilants, olor de pinassa, posant frescor de verd en les persianes; el xaloc petitet —el xaloquet de la Crònica de Muntaner— asfixiat pel sol meridià; el llebeig o garbí de l'hora de posar l'arròs a taula.
- In my book The southwest wind I spoke at length about the rotation of the winds following the path of the sun: the northeast wind of morning dragging over its loins tritons and sirens, spirals of foam, sparking brightness, the scent of pine needles, putting the freshness of greenery in the blinds; the small sirocco--the "xaloquet" of the Chronicle of Muntaner--asphyxiated by the midday sun; the southwest wind of the hour when rice is set on the table.
