In short, we were married, and very happily married on my side, I assure you, as to the man; for he was the best-humoured man that every woman had, but his circumstances were not so good as I imagined, as, on the other hand, he had not bettered himself by marrying so much as he expected.
Bref, nous fûmes mariés, et moi, pour ma part, très bien mariée, car c'était l'homme de meilleure humeur qu'une femme ait eu, mais sa condition n'était pas si bonne que je le supposais, ainsi que d'autre part il ne l'avait pas améliorée autant qu'il l'espérait.
