Quite three minutes went by, and then feeling reassured, he began to scratch the bird's poll, whilst she, taking pleasure in the caress, turned her neck and fixed her bright ruby eye upon her master.
L’attente fut de trois grandes minutes. Un moment, il se rassura, il gratta la tête de la perruche, qui, pleine d’aise, se faisait caresser, tournait le cou, levait sur son maître son petit œil rouge, d’un vif éclat de rubis.

The ruby flood rushing to the scar had turned it purple, it became raw and sanguineous, standing out quite red against the fat, white neck.
La cicatrice fut empourprée par le flot qui montait, elle devint vive et sanglante, elle se détacha, toute rouge, sur le cou gras et blanc.

Boccanera had not stirred, but with black, fixed glance remained watching his visitor's approach; and the young priest, acquainted with the usual ceremonial, knelt and kissed the large ruby which the prelate wore on his hand.
Boccanera n’avait pas bougé, regardant fixement, de son regard noir, s’avancer le visiteur ; et le prêtre, qui connaissait le cérémonial, s’agenouilla, baisa la grosse émeraude qu’il portait au doigt.

He fancied that he thus manifested a supreme contempt for the sex, but his manner merely sharpened Clorinde's smile, a smile which had an expression of crafty cruelty about it, revealing as it did her eager teeth between her ruby lips.
Et il croyait par là témoigner un grand mépris pour les femmes, ce qui aiguisait le sourire de Clorinde, un sourire discret et cruel, montrant le bout des dents, entre les lèvres rouges.
