Examples from texts

The foul words continued, words which the young woman had never heard before, all the overflow of a sewer which every morning found an outlet there, close to her, and of which she had never had the least suspicion.
Les mots ignobles continuaient, des mots que la jeune femme n'avait jamais entendus, toute une débâcle d'égout, qui, chaque matin, se déversait là, près d'elle, et qu'elle ne soupçonnait même pas.
