Nobody knew the boy, nor his father or mother. He was without beginning or antecedent, a waif, a stray, a young cub seeking his food in the jungle of empire, preying upon the weak and being preyed upon by the strong.Personne ne connaissait ce garçon, personne ne connaissait son père ni sa mère, il avait l'air d'avoir depuis toujours été abandonné, petit louveteau cherchant sa nourriture dans cette jungle, profitant du plus faible, exploité par le plus fort.London, Jack / The People of the AbyssLondon, Jack / Le Peuple de l'AbimeLe Peuple de l'AbimeLondon, JackThe People of the AbyssLondon, Jack© BiblioBazaar, LLC

And when her confinement drew nigh she went down to her cavern, and there, with no midwife, alone, she gave birth to two sons, as a lioness throws off her cubs.Quand le moment de l'enfantement fut venu, elle descendit dans le souterrain, et seule, sans une sage-femme, comme la lionne met bas dans sa tanière, elle mit au monde deux jumeaux.Maeterlinck, Maurice / Wisdom and DestinyMaeterlinck, Maurice / La sagesse et la destineeLa sagesse et la destineeMaeterlinck, MauriceWisdom and DestinyMaeterlinck, Maurice

As the girl arose from her knees, the bear dropped on its feet again, and collecting its cubs around her, permitted them to draw their natural sustenance.Au moment où elle se releva, l’ourse se mit de nouveau sur ses pattes, et après, avoir rassemblé ses oursons autour d’elle, elle les laissa prendre leur nourriture naturelle.Cooper, James Fenimore / The DeerslayerCooper, James Fenimore / Le tueur de daimsLe tueur de daimsCooper, James FenimoreThe DeerslayerCooper, James Fenimore© Wordsworth Editions Limited 1995
