Five minutes afterwards, George said, "Ah!" too, and threw his plate out on the bank; and, three minutes later than that, Montmorency gave the first sign of contentment he had exhibited since we had started, and rolled over on his side, and spread his legs out; and then I said, "Ah!" and bent my head back, and bumped it against one of the hoops, but I did not mind it.
Cinq minutes plus tard, George a son tour fit « Ah ! », et jeta son assiette sur la rive. Trois autres minutes ne s’étaient pas écoulées, que Montmorency donnait le premier signe de contentement depuis le départ.
