Candide followed the old woman, though without taking courage, to a decayed house, where she gave him a pot of pomatum to anoint his sores, showed him a very neat bed, with a suit of clothes hanging by it; and set victuals and drink before him.
Candide ne prit point courage, mais il suivit la vieille dans une masure: elle lui donna un pot de pommade pour se frotter, lui laissa à manger et à boire; elle lui montra un petit lit assez propre; il y avait auprès du lit un habit complet.
