     Ĉie kreskis palmoj, figarboj,oranĝujoj, poploj, akacioj, kiuj formis aŭ aleojn, kiuj sin direktis al la ĉefaj partoj de l’ mondo, aŭ grupoj de arboj, plantitaj regule kaj preskaŭ de sama alteco.

The suffixes-ujo and-ingo signify different kinds of containers: An-ingo can contain only a single object or part of an object, such as aglavingo(“scabbard”) (the entire sword isn't inside the holder for example, and it can hold only one sword),plumingo(“pen holder”),kandelingo(“a candlestick”), orfingringo(“a thimble”). An-ujo is a container for multiple objects, generally something which one replenishes or keeps in quantity, and it usually contains things in their entirety, such as acigarujo(“cigar box”) orsukerujo(“sugar bowl”).
