Darkness was in her eyes, and a roaring in her ears from internal emotion; the beating of her heart stopped her breath. As in a dream, she saw thousands of lamps gleaming on the tables and on the walls; as in a dream, she heard the shout with which the guests greeted Cæsar; as through a mist, she saw Cæsar himself.
Mintegy álmában pillantotta meg az asztalon és falakon lobogó ezernyi lámpát, mintegy álmában hallotta a Caesart üdvözlő kiáltást, s mintegy ködön át pillantotta meg őt magát.
