But this is the way we manage it; we collect a crowd like this one here, then each personin turn passes his head through a hole, and makes a grimace at the rest; time one who makes the ugliest, is elected pope by general acclamation; that's the way it is.
Puis chacun à son tour va passer sa tête par un trou et fait une grimace aux autres. Celui qui fait la plus laide, à l’acclamation de tous, est élu pape.
