The following quote is from Outlander by Diana Gabaldon, chapter 2, “Standing Stones.” Copyright ©️1991 by Diana Gabaldon, all rights reserved.

“I cannot really say I lost consciousness, but I was certainly not aware of myself for some time. I ‘woke,’ if that’s the word, when I stumbled on a rock near the bottom of the hill. I half slid the remaining few feet and fetched up on the thick tufted grass at the foot.
I felt sick and dizzy. I crawled toward a stand of oak saplings and leaned against one to steady myself. There was a confused noise of shouting nearby, which reminded me of the sounds I had heard, and felt, in the stone circle. The ring of inhuman violence was lacking, though; this was the normal sound of human conflict, and I turned toward it.”
