Happening to call one evening when Celine did not expect me, I found her out; but it was a warm night, and I was tired with strolling through Paris, so I sat down in her boudoir; happy to breathe the air consecrated so lately by her presence.
La nuit était chaude; fatigué d'avoir couru dans tout Paris, je m'assis dans son boudoir, heureux de respirer l'air consacré par sa présence.
