Porthos took advantage of this circumstance to ogle the women. Thanks to the cares of Mousqueton, the exterior was far from announcing the distress of the interior. His hat was a little napless, his feather was a little faded, his gold lace was a little tarnished, his laces were a trifle frayed; but in the obscurity of the church these things were not seen, and Porthos was still the handsome Porthos.
Porthos profita de la circonstance pour lorgner les femmes: grâce aux bons soins de Mousqueton l'extérieur était loin d'annoncer la détresse de l'intérieur; son feutre était bien un peu râpé, sa plume était bien un peu déteinte, ses broderies étaient bien un peu ternies, ses dentelles étaient bien éraillées; mais dans la demi-teinte toutes ces bagatelles disparaissaient, et Porthos était toujours le beau Porthos.
