Même l'éternel vert foncé des sapins, des épinettes et des cyprès se faisait rare; les quelques jeunes arbres vivants se perdaient parmi les innombrables squelettes couchés à terre et recouverts de neige, ou ces autres squelettes encore debout, décharnés et noircis.Even the dark green eternal of the fir, spruce, and cypress trees was rare; the few young living trees were lost among the countless skeletons lying on the ground and covered with snow, or those other skeletons still standing, unshake and blackened.B1Maria Chapdelaine
Les Iroquois placèrent leurs deux camarades dans la fosse qu'ils eurent soin de recouvrir de grosses pierres pour empêcher les bêtes fauves de déterrer les cadavres.The Iroquois placed their two comrades in the pit which they had taken care to cover with large stones to prevent the wild beasts from digging up the corpses.B2Le Chevalier de Mornac
Cependant, comme, en regardant autour de lui, il ne voyait aucun objet menaçant, comme rien n’indiquait qu’il courût un danger réel, comme la banquette était convenablement rembourrée, comme la muraille était recouverte d’un beau cuir de Cordoue, comme de grands rideaux de damas rouge flottaient devant la fenêtre, retenus par des embrasses d’or, il comprit peu à peu que sa frayeur était exagérée, et il commença de remuer la tête à droite et à gauche et de bas en haut.However, as he looked around him, he did not see any menacing objects, as nothing indicated that he was running a real danger, as the bench was properly padded, as the wall was covered with beautiful Cordoba leather, as large curtains of red damas floated in front of the window, held by golden kisses, he gradually understood that his fear was exaggerated, and he began to move his head to the right and left and down.B2Les Trois Mousquetaires
En un clin d'oeil une bourgade s'élevait au-dessus des neiges qui recouvraient bientôt celle qu'elle avait abandonnée.At a glance a village rose above the snows that soon covered the snow that it had abandoned.C1Histoire du Canada, tome I
