'Never judge by appearances after this,' thought Julien; 'it is at the moment when the abbe's scruples are reproaching him with some peccadillo that he looks terrible; whereas on the face of that Napier, whom everyone knows to be a spy, one sees a pure and tranquil happiness.'
Croyez après cela aux physionomies, pensa Julien ; c’est dans le moment où la délicatesse de l’abbé Pirard se reproche quelque peccadille, qu’il a l’air atroce ; tandis que sur la figure de ce Napier, espion connu de tous, on lit un bonheur pur et tranquille.
