In about an hour more we came to the town where we were to lodge, which we found in a terrible fright and all in arms; for, it seems, the night before the wolves and some bears had broken into the village, and put them in such terror that they were obliged to keep guard night and day, but especially in the night, to preserve their cattle, and indeed their people.
Nous y trouvâmes la population glacée d'effroi et sous les armes, car la nuit d'auparavant les loups et quelques ours s'étaient jetés dans le village et y avaient porté l'épouvante. Les habitants étaient forcés de faire le guet nuit et jour, mais surtout la nuit, pour défendre leur bétail et se défendre eux-mêmes.
