Il n'était pas possible de faire une promenade ce jour-là. Nous avions bien passe une heur de la matinée a errer dans le bosquet dénudé, mais depuis le déjeuner (Mrs. Reed, quand il n'y avait pas d'invite, déjeunait de bonne heure) le vent froid d'hiver avait amené de si sombre nuages et une pluie si pénétrante, que tout autre exercice en plein air était maintenant hors de question. | Translation - English
It was impossible to take a walk that day. We had passed an hour during the morning wandering in the denuded shrubbery, but after lunch (Mrs. Reed, when there were no guests, ate early), the cold wind of winter had brought such lowering clouds and so penetrating a rain that all other outdoor exercise was now out of the question. |
