Cap a dos quarts de deu o les deu passa pel carrer abandonat on vivia l'adorada inconeguda; s'hi atura un moment; cap so no caigué damunt sa orella parada; una candela expandia una claredat opaca damunt la cortina d'una finestra del segon pis.
About half-past nine or ten o'clock he came along the deserted street to where the Adored Unknown lived; he paused a moment; no sound fell upon his listening ear; a candle was casting a dull glow upon the curtain of a second-story window.
