"Dia tertidur dengan kepala di lengannya, malaikat jarum jam, masih di lehernya, bersandar di bahunya tepat di sebelah kiri tulang selangkanya. Ketika dia bergerak pergi, malaikat jarum jam menyelinap bebas dan dia melihat dengan terkejut bahwa di mana itu terletak di kulitnya itu meninggalkan bekas di belakang, tidak lebih besar dari shilling, dalam bentuk bintang putih pucat."

--- Cassandra Clare

Versi Bahasa Inggris

She had fallen asleep with her head on his arm, the clockwork angel, still around her throat, resting against his shoulder just to the left of his collarbone. As she moved away, the clockwork angel slipped free and she saw to her surprise that where it had lain against his skin it had left a mark behind, no bigger than a shilling, in the shape of a pale white star.
