It was not as a father, but as an artist, that he gloated over the boy as the subject for a masterpiece, blinking his eyes the while, and dreaming of some wonderful picture he would paint.
Il ne le couvait plus que de ses yeux d’artiste, comme un motif à chef-d’œuvre, clignant les paupières, rêvant le tableau.

I gloated over the ghastliness of each detail; howls resounded through the vault; somebody whom one could not see, whose vicinity was not even suspected, would suddenly drop upon another's shoulder.
Je me complaisais, je descendais dans l'horreur des moindres détails. Des hurlements traversaient les ténèbres. Tout d'un coup, un voisin qu'on ne savait pas là, qu'on ne voyait pas, s'abattait contre votre épaule.
