Then he put his face close to the window pane, thinking that a person looking for crabs might be poaching in the Brindille, for it was past midnight, and this light rose up at the edge of the stream, under the trees.
Alors il approcha son visage du carreau, pensant qu'un pêcheur d'écrevisses braconnait sans doute dans la Brindille, car il était minuit passé, et cette lueur rampait au bord de l'eau, sous la futaie.

The provisions of the two establishments often got mixed together, mistakes were made with the different pans, the two dinners being so intermingled that Rose would cry out with a laugh : Tell me, madame, are these poached eggs yours?
Les provisions se mêlaient, les casseroles allaient à la débandade, les deux dîners se confondaient, à ce point que la cuisinière s'écriait en riant, au moment de servir: --Dites, madame, est-ce que les oeufs sur le plat sont à vous?
