A severe attack of fever had come on him during the night, and he was shivering from it, with his face very yellow, and his eyes ablaze and haggard.

Dans la nuit, il avait eu un accès de fièvre, il en grelottait encore, très jaune, les yeux brûlants et inquiets.

The private rooms of the restaurants were still ablaze, the cafes threw bright radiance across the road, the pavement was blocked by their tables and chairs and customers.

Les cabinets des restaurants flambaient encore, les cafés incendiaient la chaussée, leurs terrasses barraient les trottoirs de l’entassement des consommateurs.
