Examples from texts

The pearl tinkled in the golden bell ; the chain hung low, still warm from the hands of the giver ; and on the velvet flashed the diamond letters by which Rougon could easily read the secret known to everybody.
La perle fine tintait dans le grelot d'or; la chaîne pendait, comme tiède encore de la main du maître; les diamants luisaient sur le velours, où il épelait aisément le secret connu de tous.

As a first conclusion, we see that it is not to the coloration of the diamond, but to its geological origin, that its phosphorescence is due.
Gomme première conclusion, nous voyons que la phosphorescence du diamant n'est pas due à sa-coloration, mais à son origine géologique.

Although by its phosphorescent actions the diamond resembles the bodies we have just studied, it yet possesses special and highly interesting properties, the study of which delayed me some time.
Bien que, par ses actions phosphorescentes, le diamant se rapproche des corps que nous venons d'étudier, il possède cependant des 'propriétés spéciales fort intéressantes, dont l'étude nous arrêta quelque temps.

As Figure 3 illustrates, the fabled "pyramid" is really shaped more like a tall diamond—in India at least— with a newly bulging middle class and a relatively slim "stem" of very poor people.
Comme l'illustre la figure 3, la « pyramide » des âges ressemble davantage à un diamant étiré à la base, du moins en Inde, la classe moyenne formant un renflement au centre et les plus démunis une « tige » étroite.

We are generally taught in the text-books that the rough diamond is not phosphorescent, and only acquires that property after being polished.
On enseigne généralement dans les ouvrages classiques, que le diamant brut n'est pas phosphorescent et n'acquiert cette propriété qu'après le polissage.

The contrary is the case with the diamond, which only gives light after having been subjected to polishing, and does not manifest this faculty when in its natural crystalline state."
