Its voice, like that of a fiendish monster, more resonant than thunder-a savage and appalling roar contrived to drown the clamour of the wind and waves-spread through the darkness, across the sea, which was invisible under its shroud of fog.
Sa clameur de monstre surnaturel, plus retentissante que le tonnerre, rugissement sauvage et formidable fait pour dominer les voix du vent et des vagues, se répandit dans les ténèbres sur la mer invisible ensevelie sous les brouillards.

She gave hollow sobs, she received shocks that threw her backward, in a distracting attack of terror and anguish. She remained there choking, uttering from time to time a piercing scream amidst the profound roar of her affliction.
Elle eut des sanglots sourds, des secousses qui la jetaient en arrière, une crise folle de terreur et d'angoisse; elle resta là étouffant, jetant de temps à autre un cri aigu dans le gonflement profond de sa douleur.
