le capitaine était mis fort galamment ; il avait au col et aux poignets des touffes de doreloterie : grande élégance d’alors.
the captain was very gallantly clad; he had tufts of embroidery at his neck and wrists; a great elegance at that day.

la folie commençait à ne pas lui rapporter plus que la doreloterie autrefois ; pour une ride qui venait, un écu s’en allait ; l’hiver lui redevenait dur, le bois se faisait derechef rare dans son cendrier et le pain dans sa huche.
folly began to bring her in no more than her trade of embroidery in former days; for every wrinkle that came, a crown fled; winter became hard to her once more, wood became rare again in her brazier, and bread in her cupboard.
