I would rather perish than not draw from it the last chance of good fortune which it brings me! "
Plutôt que de n’en point tirer tout ce qu’il m’apporte de chance dernière, j’y laisserai ma vie ! »

The explosions of a world which produces them reveal to us, perhaps, how the universes perish when they become old.
Les explosions d'un monde qui les produit nous révèlent peut-être comment périssent les univers quand ils viennent à vieillir.

They perish of too much piety,-- if you call it perishing to fling one's self on the breast of him we love.
Ils périssent par trop de religion, si l’on appelle périr se jeter au cou de ce qu’on aime.

Now we were out on the open road, moving to the sound of the guns. At the worst, we should not perish like rats in a sewer.
Nous avancions maintenant en pleine campagne au son du canon, et en mettant les choses au pire, nous ne péririons pas comme des rats dans un égout.

And the Cardinal's tall figure, his pale, proud face, so full of sovereign despair and courage, expressed that stubborn determination to perish beneath the ruins of the old social edifice rather than change a single one of its stones.
Et, dans le haut portrait du cardinal, dans sa face pâle, si fière, si désespérée et brave, il y avait cette volonté têtue de s’anéantir sous les décombres du vieil édifice social, plutôt que d’en changer une seule pierre.

The mentality of the modern era precludes the realization of the ideal of universal domination, which has obsessed so many conquerors, for in our day most nations would rather perish than submit to a hegemony imposed upon them by force.
Avec la mentalité moderne, l'idéal de domination universelle, qui obséda tant de conquérants, n'est plus réalisable. De nos jours, la plupart des peuples préféreraient périr que d'accepter une hégémonie imposée par la force.

As a general rule, to avoid the loss of everything, the companies were one day compelled to take back both land and buildings, incomplete though the latter might be, and from the congestion which resulted they were bound to perish.
Le plus souvent, pour ne pas tout perdre les sociétés se trouvaient un jour forcées de reprendre les terrains et les constructions, même inachevées, ce qui amenait entre leurs mains un engorgement formidable, dont elles devaient périr.

products graded in classes other than the "Extra" class may show in addition slight deteriorations due to their development and their tendency to perish.

By a marvellous exception, the strangeness of which struck no one, while all things in the universe were condemned to perish, matter remained indestructible.
Par une exception merveilleuse, et qui cependant ne frappait personne, alors que toutes les choses de l'univers étaient condamnées à périr, la matière ne s'anéantissait jamais.
