I meant to compromise matters by going down to the edge and just throwing the water over myself; so I took a towel and crept out on the bank and wormed my way along on to the branch of a tree that dipped down into the water.
Je m’en tins donc au compromis qui consistait à descendre jusqu’au bord et à m’asperger simplement d’eau. Je pris une serviette et m’aventurai sur la basse branche d’un arbre qui trempait dans le fleuve.

The Brother silently crept to the heap of stones, and waited till the old man was some distance off.

The figure, placed close by, seemed to revive under the warm air that now crept up her from her shins to her neck.
Justement, la Baigneuse, placée très près, semblait revivre, sous le souffle tiède qui lui montait le long de l’échine, des jarrets à la nuque.

It was a tempting sight, for we could easily have crept within shot, but we dared not touch them.
Il y avait de quoi tenter des chasseurs, car il nous était facile de les approcher à portée de fusil; mais nous n'osions pas les tirer.

When the voices died into silence, she rose and crept stealthily away. Pale, shivering, with rigid features and compressed lips, she looked an entirely altered being from the soft and timid creature she had been hitherto.
Quand les voix moururent dans le silence, elle se releva et se coula dehors. Pâle, frissonnante, les traits contractés, les lèvres serrées, ce n’était plus la douce et timide créature qu’elle avait été jusque-là.

She stealthily crept up the silent stairs, and into her room, undressed quickly, and slipped into bed with a reawakened sense of that long-forgotten sin. Roland was snoring.
Elle monta, à pas furtifs, l'escalier silencieux, entra dans sa chambre, se dévêtit bien vite, et se glissa, avec l'émotion retrouvée des adultères anciens, auprès de Roland qui ronflait.

So through the afternoon I lay and prayed for the coming of darkness, and glad I was when the sun went down over the big western hills and the twilight haze crept over the moor.
Aussi, durant tout l'après-midi, je restai couché, priant Dieu de ramener l'obscurité, et je me réjouis de voir enfin le soleil disparaître derrière les montagnes de l'ouest, et la brume du soir s'étaler sur la lande.

However, increasing apathy crept upon him as he lay there with shrunken arms and pallid features; his weakness augmented as the earth grew more ailing.
Il s'abandonnait, les bras amaigris, la tête pâle, d'autant plus faible que la campagne était plus malade.

They walked back together to the corner of the street where Rachael lived, and as they drew nearer and nearer to it, silence crept upon them.
Ils revinrent ensemble jusqu’au coin de la rue où demeurait Rachel ; et, à mesure qu’ils s’en rapprochaient, ils cessèrent de se parler.

It crept towards us, passed, and my mind was just getting easy again when it stopped.
L’auto glissa vers nous, nous dépassa, et je commençais à me tranquilliser lorsque tout à coup, elle s’arrêta.

That which ever excited one's admiration was the ceaseless march of this serpent of fire, whose golden coils crept so gently over the black earth, winding, stretching into the far distance, without the immense body ever seeming to end.
Mais le continuel émerveillement, c’était la marche ininterrompue de ce serpent de feu, dont les anneaux d’or rampaient si doucement sur la terre noire, s’allongeaient, s’allongeaient, sans que jamais l’immense corps déployé parût finir.

The lad had opened his eyes, and crept away, fearfully, from the Brother, to place himself under the priest's protection.
Le galopin avait ouvert les yeux, s'écartant peureusement du Frère, se mettant sous la protection de l'abbé Mouret.

And still, without ceasing, newly-wounded men crept over us, fleeing at any price. In the fear that their contact evoked we groaned again, "We shan't get out of this; nobody will get out of it."
Et, sans arrêt, rampaient de nouveaux blessés fuyant quand même, qui faisaient peur et au contact desquels on gémissait parce qu’on se répétait : – On ne sortira pas de là, personne ne sortira de là.

Laurent, who felt wide awake, and was tired of his recumbent position, crept up behind her and kissed her shoe and ankle.
Alors, Laurent se coula doucement vers la jeune femme; il avança les lèvres et baisa sa bottine et sa cheville.
