But when the wind rushed through the street, the snow was blown in the child's face, and the threshold was almost barred by the white masses; then she moved away to the side, against the virgins placed above the base of the arch.
Mais, lorsque le vent enfilait la rue, la neige fouettait de face, des paquets blancs menaçaient de barrer le seuil; et l'enfant, alors, se garait sur les côtés, contre les vierges posées au-dessus du stylobate de l'ébrasement.
