It would amuse away the difficulties of her part, and lessen the irksomeness of Miss Smith's.

(Emma, de Jane Austen)

Catherine began to feel something of disappointment—she was tired of being continually pressed against by people, the generality of whose faces possessed nothing to interest, and with all of whom she was so wholly unacquainted that she could not relieve the irksomeness of imprisonment by the exchange of a syllable with any of her fellow captives; and when at last arrived in the tea-room, she felt yet more the awkwardness of having no party to join, no acquaintance to claim, no gentleman to assist them.

(Northanger Abbey, de Jane Austen)
