"And to think how damned sick we were of the old cackler when he made such a song about his treasure and dinned it into our ears!"
– S’est-on jamais assez foutu de c’vieux pétard, quand il en f’sait un saladier à propos de son trésor, et qu’i’ nous t’nait la jambe et nous cassait l’bonnet avec ça !

I insulted the Madonna and regretted that I had not damned myself with you that we might die together, so tightly clasped that we must needs be buried together also.
J’insultais la Madone, je regrettais, en ce moment-là, de ne m’être pas damnée avec toi, pour mourir avec toi, enlacés tous les deux dans une étreinte si rude, qu’il aurait fallu nous enterrer ensemble...

They can tell us all the clap-trap they like, and trim up all the words they can rind and all they can make up, but to say that all this innocent suffering could come from a perfect God, it's damned skull-stuffing."
On pourra nous raconter les boniments qu’on voudra, et ajuster là-dessus tous les mots qu’on trouvera, et qu’on inventera : toute cette souffrance innocente qui sortirait d’un Dieu parfait, c’est un sacré bourrage de crâne.

"That's true," Marthereau admits; "to get all this lot on the way, you've not got to be a lot of turnip-heads nor a lot of custards—Bon Dieu, look where you're putting your damned boots, you black-livered beast!"
– C’est vrai, concède Marthereau, pour conduire tout c’fourbi à la voile, faut pas être une bande de navets, et pas non plus une bande de flans… Bon Dieu, fais attention où c’que ru poses tes ribouis maudits, peau d’tripe, bête noire !

But I knew them both very wretched: he, wretched through her, who treated him as if he were one of the damned; and she, suffering through him, tortured by his irreligion.
Moi, je les ai connus si misérables, lui malheureux par elle, qui le traitait en damné, elle souffrant de lui, dont l’irréligion la torturait !

Like a damned soul yearning after Paradise, she threw up her arms in bitter desperation and besought the love that denied itself to her, sobbing and wailing: My God, my God! why hast Thou forsaken me? '
Alors, ainsi qu'une damnée, brûlée des feux du paradis, elle levait les bras désespérément, elle réclamait l'amant qui se refusait à elle, balbutiant, criant: --Mon Dieu, mon Dieu! pourquoi vous-êtes vous retiré de moi?

"No fear," says Lamuse, "you won't see me put my cup in my pocket; damned silly idea, no more or less. I'd a sight sooner sling it on a strap with a hook."
– Plus souvent, dit Lamuse, qui tu m’voiras mett’ mon quart dans m’poche. S’t’une idée à la graisse d’hérisson et à la mords-moi le doigt, ni plus ni moins, j’préfère beaucoup mieux l’amurer à ma bretelle de suspension avec un crochet.

' You will be damned, sir, you will, and it will only be right, for you are not a good man at heart, no, you are not I You ought to go with your wife to mass next Sunday morning.'
Vous serez damné, vous, monsieur, et ce sera bien fait, parce qu'au fond vous n'êtes pas bon; non, vous n'êtes pas bon!... Vous devriez la conduire à la messe, dimanche prochain.
