Examples from texts

When the Manitou of a pale-face wishes to produce good in a pale-face heart He strikes it with grief; for it is in our sorrows, June, that we look with the truest eyes into ourselves, and with the farthest-sighted eyes too, as respects right.
Lorsque le manitou d’une face pâle veut produire du bien dans son cœur, il le frappe de chagrin, car c’est dans nos douleurs que nous jetons un regard plus pénétrant en nous-mêmes et que nous comprenons mieux nos devoirs.

Then that keen-sighted monitor, conscience, by reminding them of the retributive justice of all they had endured, goaded them rather to turn the tables on their enemies than to accuse themselves.
Et puis, la conscience, ce censeur clairvoyant, en leur rappelant que toutes leurs souffrances n’avaient été qu’une juste suite de leur propre conduite, les portait a jeter les torts sur leurs ennemis, au lieu de s’accuser eux-mêmes.

Most exacting of all things, unskilful, thick-sighted, is the moral beauty, perfection, or goodness that is still in the shape of desire.
Il n'est rien de plus exigeant, de plus maladroit, de plus aveugle que la bonté, la beauté, la perfection morale à l'état de désir.

Rifles have been sighted this morning, ay, and triggers pulled, too, though not as often a they might have been.
Oui, il y a eu des coups de feu tirés ce matin, quoique en moins grand nombre qu’il en eût pu être tiré.

One of his notions, now, is to prefer a king's piece to a regular, double-sighted, long-barrelled rifle.
Une de ses idées est de préférer le fusil du roi à une longue carabine.

Et, de nouveau, Pierre s’étonnait de cette plaie en voie de guérison, sinon guérie, de ce visage de monstre qu’on pouvait maintenant regarder sans horreur.

The crowd in the burning sunlight was increasing; the Place du Rosaire was now overflowing with an idle sauntering mob resembling some concourse of sight-seers on a day of public rejoicing.
La foule grandissait au brûlant soleil, la place du Rosaire débordait d’une cohue vague et badaude, comme en un jour de réjouissance publique.

She stopped two or three times before the shop-windows, as if absorbed in a sight which she did not even see, and each time she started off again with a more excited step.
Elle s’arrêta, à deux ou trois reprises, devant des étalages, comme toute au spectacle d’objets qu’elle ne voyait seulement pas. Et, chaque fois, elle reprit sa course, d’un pas plus saccadé.

And almost immediately afterwards he caught sight of the mother, who had hastily enveloped herself in an old yellow dressing-gown, standing with a terrified look in the inner room.
Et, tout de suite, dans la seconde chambre, il aperçut la mère, vêtue en hâte d’un vieux peignoir jaune, debout, l’air terrifié.
