The sight of the linen seemed to affect him in a very singular manner. He could
not be prevailed upon to touch it or go near it, shuddering when we attempted to
force him, and shrieking out, "Tekeli-li!"
-- E.A. Poe, The Narrative of Arthur Gordon Pym of Nantucket (1838)

...the nightmare, plastic column of fetid black iridescence, oozed tightly
onward through its fifteen-foot sinus, gathering unholy speed and driving before
it a spiral, rethickening cloud of pallid abyss vapor. It was a terrible,
indescribable thing vaster than any subway train - a shapeless congeries of
protoplasmic bubbles, faintly self-luminous, and with myriads of temporary eyes
forming and unforming as pustules of greenish light all over the tunnel-filling
front that bore down on us, crushing the frantic penguins and slithering over
the glistening floor that it and its kind had swept so evilly free of all
litter. Still came that eldritch, mocking cry: 'Tekeli-li! Tekeli-li!'
-- H.P. Lovecraft, At the Mountains of Madness (1936)
