I dressed myself up as well as the best clothes that I suffered myself ever to appear in there would allow me, and went to the press-yard, but had for some time a hood over my face. He said little to me at first, but asked me if I knew him. I told him, Yes, very well; but as I concealed my face, so I counterfeited my voice, that he had not the least guess at who I was.
Je m'habillai aussi bien que les meilleurs vêtements que je souffris jamais de porter là me le permirent, et je me rendis dans le préau; mais j'avais un chaperon sur la figure; il me dit bien peu de chose d'abord, mais me demanda si je le connaissais; je lui dis qu' «oui, fort bien»; mais ainsi que j'avais caché mon visage, ainsi je contrefis ma voix aussi, et il n'eut pas la moindre idée de la personne que j'étais.
