2038 pendant les huit dernières années, il avait un moment dirigé une fabrique de chapeaux ; et quand on lui demandait pourquoi il s'était retiré, il se contentait de parler de la coquinerie d'un associé, un compatriote, une canaille qui avait mangé la maison avec les femmes. 2039 les jours où il se plaignait, si l'on se risquait à lui indiquer une manufacture demandant des ouvriers, il semblait pris d'une pitié souriante, il n'avait pas envie de crever la faim, en s'échinant pour les autres. ce gaillard-là, toutefois, comme disait coupeau, ne vivait pas de l'air du temps.

English

332 then suddenly, unexpectedly, he caught sight of something that did. he caught only a glimpse of it, a flicker of movement, no more, and then it was gone. he pressed himself back into the shadows and went still, waiting to see if he would spot it again. he did so, only seconds later, another glimpse, but enough to tell him more. it was someone human, slender and robed, sliding along the walls as he had been doing, a little off to one side of where he stood. he debated what to do. his impulse was to flee or hide, anything to avoid an encounter.
