He seemed, moreover, to be breathing some strangely perfumed atmosphere, and would have liked to throw himself upon one of the couches and drop off to sleep amidst that odorous air.

Madeleine resta les yeux attachés sur sa mère, respirant quand elle respirait, imitant son souffle léger, dernier fil par lequel elle tenait à la vie, et que nous suivions avec terreur, craignant à chaque effort de le voir se rompre.
