   • 1916, Povl Drachmann, Kampens Mænd, section 47:

     nu kunde hun se, at han aldeles ikke havde glemt, at hun var med, men at han blot havde skaltet hende ud af sine Bevidsthedscentrer i de Øjeblikke, da deres fulde Kapacitet krævedes for andre Ting.

     Now she saw that he had not forgot that she was with him, but only switched her out of his centers of consciousness as long as their full capacity were needed for other matters.
