- Personne, Dieu merci, ne fut notablement endommagé.»]No one, thank God, was significantly damaged."]B2Le Chevalier de Mornac
- Il se flattait de faire peur à Porthos avec l’aventure du baudrier, qu’il pouvait, s’il n’était pas tué sur le coup, raconter à tout le monde, récit qui, poussé adroitement à l’effet, devait couvrir Porthos de ridicule; enfin, quant au sournois Aramis, il n’en avait pas très grand-peur, et en supposant qu’il arrivât jusqu’à lui, il se chargeait de l’expédier bel et bien, ou du moins en le frappant au visage, comme César avait recommandé de faire aux soldats de Pompée, d’endommager à tout jamais cette beauté dont il était si fier.He flattered himself to scare Porthos with the adventure of the shoulder harness, which he could not, if he was not killed on the spot, tell to everyone, a story which, impelled deceitfully to the effect, had to cover Porthos with ridicule; finally, as for the devious Aramis, he did not have very great-fear, and assuming that he arrived to him, he took on the task of shipping it indeed, or at least striking him to the face, as Caesar had recommended to the soldiers of Pompey, to damage for ever this beauty of which he was so proud.B2Les Trois Mousquetaires
