A furlough is as binding on a pale-face, if he be honest, as it is on a red-skin, and was it not so, I would never bring disgrace on the Delawares, among whom I may be said to have received my education.
Un congé est un lien aussi solide pour un blanc, s’il est honnête, que pour une Peau-Rouge ; et quand cela ne serait pas, je ne voudrais jamais déshonorer les Delawares, parmi lesquels on peut dire que j’ai reçu mon éducation.

So material, indeed, was the difference in the rate of going between the two canoes for the next five minutes, that the Hurons began to be convinced all their powers must be exerted or they would suffer the disgrace of being baffled by women.
La différence de vitesse, entre les deux nacelles, pendant les cinq minutes qui suivirent, fut si évidente, que les Indiens virent qu’il fallait qu’ils fissent les derniers efforts, ou qu’ils auraient la honte d’avoir été vaincus par deux femmes.

For nearly a year, however, the Camerlingo had not been received in private audience by his Holiness, and this was a sign of disgrace, a proof of secret warfare, of which the entire black world spoke in prudent whispers.
Mais, depuis bientôt un an, le camerlingue n’avait pas été admis en audience particulière, ce qui était un signe de disgrâce, une preuve de guerre, dont tout le monde noir causait bas, avec prudence.

It was even harder than he could have believed possible, to separate in his own conscience his abandonment by all his fellows from a baseless sense of shame and disgrace.
Il n’aurait jamais cru qu’il fût si difficile de séparer dans sa conscience l’abandon complet où le laissaient ses camarades d’un sentiment injuste de déshonneur et de honte.

I shall not boast of what I can do, under torment, for I've never been tried, and no man can say till he has been; but I'll do my endivours not to disgrace the people among whom I got my training.
Je ne me vanterai pas de ce que je puis faire dans les tourments, car je n’ai jamais été mis à l’épreuve, et personne ne doit parler auparavant ; mais je ferai tous mes efforts pour ne pas faire honte à la nation parmi laquelle j’ai été élevé.

What long devised plan of disgrace had Napoleon been maturing behind that impenetrable expression of his, that he should now so suddenly have crushed him in a night, after a score of times insisting on his retaining office ?
Quelle longue pensée de disgrâce devait-il donc mûrir, derrière son visage voilé, pour le briser si brusquement, en une nuit, après l'avoir vingt fois retenu au pouvoir?

My brother Charles's career, already begun, required large outlay, amply deserved by his conduct which did honor to the family, while mine would always disgrace it.
La carrière embrassée par mon frère Charles n’exigeait-elle pas une dotation indépendante, déjà méritée par une conduite qui glorifiait sa famille, tandis que j’en serais la honte!
