He worshipped this new angel with furtive eye, till he saw that she had discovered him; then he pretended he did not know she was present, and began to "show off" in all sorts of absurd boyish ways, in order to win her admiration.
Adora aquest nou angel amb esguard furtiu, fins que veié que ella l'havia descobert: aleshores va fer veure que no sabia que ella fos present, i comença de «fer-se veure» en tota mena d'absurdes faisons infantívoles, per guanyar-se la seva admiració.
