For hours together she would roam about the spacious dismal room, and as she passed before the mirror and saw herself darkening in it, she thought she had become hideous.

Then, however, they felt moved, for the thought came to them that the family ties would be drawn yet closer, that the young fellow's heart would not roam in search of love elsewhere, but would remain with them.
Ensuite, un attendrissement leur était venu, la pensée que le lien de la famille serait resserré encore, que le cœur de ce garçon n’irait point aimer autre part, leur resterait acquis, en leur devenant deux fois cher.

He carries archipelagoes on his breast, and stretches out arms covered with herbage like pasture land. And there are the depths where flotillas of huge fishes roam at their ease.

During the weeks that I have roamed hither and thither among the dust of famous ruins, I have never ceased to come in contact with evils which demand cure.
Depuis des semaines que j’erre au hasard, dans l’attente, à travers la poussière fameuse de ses ruines, je ne fais que me heurter à des maux inguérissables, qui m’ont empli d’effroi.

In a stench of sulphur amid black powder, of burned stuffs and calcined earth which roams in sheets about the country, all the menagerie is let loose and gives battle.
Dans une odeur de soufre, de poudre noire, d’étoffes brûlées, de terre calcinée, qui rôde en nappes sur la campagne, toute la ménagerie donne, déchaînée.
