“Les gens du village essayaient toujours de nous séparer, seulement ils utilisaient maintenant des moyens différents, plus subtils. Ils prenaient Marishka à part et lui chuchotaient à l'oreille. Je me souvenais des vers de Byron dans « Don Juan » :Il avait un amant, on disait deuxMais pour les scènes, un c'est presque mieux[People in the village were still trying to separate us, only they were now using different, more subtle means. They would take Marishka aside and whisper into her ear. I remembered Byron's lines from « Don Juan » :They whispered he had a lover, some said two ;But for domestic quarrels one will do. (p. 287)]””

'This', as I wrote to a friend, 'is what I call progress.'] (p. 51)””
