S'enfila al clos, i passa llisquívolament entre les plantes, fins a romandre sota aquella finestra; mira en l'aire, envers ella, per llarga estona, i amb emoció; després s'ajagué en terra sota d'ella, cara en l'aire, amb les mans estretes damunt el pit, i servant la pobra flor marcida.
He climbed the fence, threaded his stealthy way through the plants, till he stood under that window; he looked up at it long, and with emotion; then he laid him down on the ground under it, disposing himself upon his back, with his hands clasped upon his breast and holding his poor wilted flower.
