"Oh, yes!" she said, turning her forehead to my lips with a fond motion. "But without you it is fatal to me,-- without thee," she added, putting her burning lips to my ear and whispering the words like a sigh.
— Si, dit-elle en apportant son front sous mes lèvres par un mouvement de câlinerie, mais, sans vous, elle m’est funeste… … "sans toi" , reprit-elle en effleurant mon oreille de ses lèvres chaudes pour y jeter ces deux syllabes comme deux soupirs.

As it happened, Monsieur Rambaud was present at the moment; and when Helene began to spread a napkin, by way of tablecloth, on the bed, the child whispered in her ear: "Wait a moment--when he has gone."
Comme monsieur Rambaud justement se trouvait là, elle murmura à l’oreille de sa mère, qui étalait déjà une serviette sur le lit, en guise de nappe : – Attends, quand il sera parti.

A wild gust of wind swept down, extinguishing the candle he held in his hand, and with it the fearful, unearthly screams; they seemed to be shrieked in his very ear.
La chandelle qu’il tenait à la main s’éteignit, et une violente rafale descendit, apportant avec elle des cris perçants, lamentables, et qui semblaient poussés aux oreilles de Legris.

It seemed as if a voice kept speaking in my ear, telling me to be up and doing, or I would never sleep again.
