Ces maisons étaient vides, leurs portes bâillaient et aucun éclat de mica ne brillait dans la pénombre de leurs pièces.

The fresh September wind gave a glint of steel to the little crisp waves of the harbor and to the slate-blue smutted sky.

There was still time for one of our number to jokingly suggest a glass of vodka, but already beneath the unbuttoned shirt a fine trickle of blood was to be seen and the gray glint of a blade – that of a "Finnish knife," which had snapped at the hilt.
L'un de nous eut encore le temps de plaisanter en parlant d'un verre de vodka, mais déjà sous la chemise déboutonnée on voyait une fine coulée de sang et l'éclat gris d'une lame – celle d'un «couteau finnois» qui s'était cassée à la garde.

I struck wildly, but with success. The lance-blade glinted from the head of my weapon. Its shaft passed me; and our bodies met with a shock that caused us both to reel upon the very edge of the cliff.
Heureusement la pointe rencontra le fer de ma hache; la lance détournée passa derrière moi, et nos corps se rencontrèrent avec une violence qui nous fit rouler tous deux au bord du précipice.

It took him an interminable time to close in and refine the angle of attack so that by the end it was as if he had known the Heinkel's pilot for a long period of time and could guess at the thoughts of this man within the glinting cockpit…
Il mit une heure interminable à compresser la distance, à affiner l'angle d'attaque et, à la fin, semblait connaître de longue date celui qui pilotait le Heinkel, deviner les pensées de l'homme derrière le reflet du cockpit…

The sun glinted on the metals of the line and the wet stones in the stream, and you could not have found a more peaceful sight in the world.
L'acier des rails et les pierres mouillées du torrent luisaient au soleil, et l'on ne pouvait imaginer scène plus pacifique.
