Ah! yes, it was very bad, for they were fine men and fine horses. It is strange to see men blown by the wind over the precipices, but the ground was so slippery and there was nothing to which they could hold.
Il est bien étrange de voir le vent emporter des hommes par-dessus le bord des précipices, mais le sol était bien glissant, et il n'y avait rien à quoi ils pussent se retenir.
