We stride over the frigid remains, slimy and pale, that suggest the belly of a stranded crocodile; and it is difficult to do so, by reason of the soft and slippery ground.
On voit se bomber à travers ce voile humide la poitrine et le ventre couverts d’une chemise. On enjambe cette dépouille glacée, visqueuse et claire comme le ventre d’un vague saurien échoué – et cela est ardu à cause du terrain mou et glissant.

We enter the open trench, and the embrace of night and storm resumes the sole possession of this confusion of corpses, stranded and cramped on a square of earth as on a raft.

On every side you find as it were a huge building yard, which the financial crisis perpetuates; the city of to-morrow arrested in its growth, stranded there in its monstrous, precocious, surprising infancy.
Partout des amorces de voies projetées, le colossal chantier que la crise financière menace d’éterniser maintenant, la ville de demain arrêtée dans sa croissance, restée en détresse, avec ses commencements démesurés, trop hâtifs et qui détonnent.

Though begun in an orderly way, the arrangement degenerates, thanks to the ill temper of the exhausted men, who must continually be uprooting themselves from the spot where the undulating mob is stranded.
