He glanced up at the dark outline of bird above him.

They could see its dark outline in the starlight, but little else.

Looked down and saw the dark outline of a book on the floor.

He reached the top, and the dark outline of his figure stood in relief against the sky.

The back door, even though his eyes were very accustomed to the darkness now, was only a dark outline.

But in the distance she could see the dark outline of several buildings.

Then he saw the building in dark outline before him.

To the left he could see the dark outline of a barn.

She could see stars, and the dark outline of land not far away.

Beyond the dark outline of the building there was absolutely nothing at all.
