“De bon matin, on peut la voir sur les chemins, tirant son cheval par le licol. Toute dégingandée, la pauvre femme ; les joues criblées de variole, brûlées par le soleil et le grand air. Elle avance à longues enjambées ; on entend sonner ses bottes raides, pleines de bosselures racornies.

[Dis-de-dimineaţă o vezi pe drum, târându-şi calul de căpăstru. Femeia e înaltă, uscată cu obrajii stricaţi de vărsat, arşi de soare şi de vânt. Păşeşte larg, tropotind cu cizmele tari, pline de umflături uscate.]
