However, as it were, tired with that kind of work, we sat down, and there he talked with me a great while; he said he was charmed with me, and that he could not rest night or day till he had told me how he was in love with me, and, if I was able to love him again, and would make him happy, I should be the saving of his life, and many such fine things.
Eh bien, fatigués de ce genre de travail, nous nous assîmes, et là il me parla pendant longtemps; me dit qu'il était charmé de moi, qu'il ne pouvait avoir de repos qu'il ne m'eût persuadé qu'il était amoureux de moi, et que si je pouvais l'aimer en retour, et si je voulais le rendre heureux, je lui sauverais la vie, et mille belles choses semblables.
