And she remained tearless; fury dried her tears within her. Yet, good mother that she had always been, she suffered all the torment of motherliness exasperated, poisoned by the loss of her child.
Et sa pire douleur était la sécheresse où elle restait, cette fureur qui brûlait en elle les larmes, tandis que la bonne mère qu’elle avait toujours été, souffrait l’atroce torture d’une maternité exaspérée, empoisonnée par la perte de son enfant.

- Did he really come all this distance, across mountain, and valley, rivers and lakes, to torment his fellow creatures, and do so wicked a thing?"

I shall not boast of what I can do, under torment, for I've never been tried, and no man can say till he has been; but I'll do my endivours not to disgrace the people among whom I got my training.
Je ne me vanterai pas de ce que je puis faire dans les tourments, car je n’ai jamais été mis à l’épreuve, et personne ne doit parler auparavant ; mais je ferai tous mes efforts pour ne pas faire honte à la nation parmi laquelle j’ai été élevé.
