Add to this a rifle nearly five feet long, taking ninety to the pound, and so straight that the line of the barrel scarcely deflects from that of the butt.

Children guess each other's covetousness, just as you are able to read a man's love, by the look in the eyes; consequently I became an admirable butt for ridicule.
Les enfants devinent la convoitise dans les regards aussi bien que vous y lisez l’amour; je devins alors un excellent sujet de moquerie.

I saw the butt-ends of rifles crash on his head and shoulders, and the next second the stream had passed over his body.
Je vis les crosses des fusils s’abattre sur son crâne et ses épaules; et l’instant d’après, le torrent humain franchissait son cadavre…

As Deerslayer's examination was by this time ended, he dropped the butt of his rifle, and, leaning on the barrel with both hands, he turned towards the girl with an interest the singular beauty of her sister had not awakened.
Comme il avait alors terminé son examen, il appuya sur le plancher la crosse de sa carabine, et plaçant ses deux mains sur la bouche du canon, il la regarda avec un intérêt que la beauté supérieure de sa sœur n’avait pu lui inspirer.

Quick as thought, we each seized an oar, and a vigorous blow against the side of the lock with the butt-ends released the boat, and sent us sprawling on our backs.
En un éclair, nous nous emparâmes chacun d’un aviron, et les boutant contre la porte de l’écluse, nous délivrâmes le bateau, non sans perdre l’équilibre et nous retrouver les quatre fers en l’air.

A disgusting smell escapes from the trench, and those inside halt butt into each other, and refuse to advance.
