Exactly as the rain-filled cloud is seen
Lifting earthly vapours through the air,
Forming a bow, and then drinking there
By plunging deep in Tethys' hoary sheen,
Next, climbing again where it has been,
With bellying shadow darkening everywhere,
Till finally it bursts in
lightning
glare,
And rain, or snow, or hail shrouds the scene:
This city, that was once a shepherd's field,
Rising by degrees, such power did wield,
She made herself the queen of sea and land,
Till helpless to sustain that huge excess,
Her power dispersed, so we might understand
That all, one day, must come to nothingness.

was the king:--beloved the swain;
All was accomplished, and the monarch placed
Among the heroes who with horns are graced;
No doubt a dignity not much desired,
Though in repute, and easily acquired.

A state of
human civilisation, of human society, morality,
order, and general organisation which would be
able to
dispense
with the services of an imitative
artist or mimic, is not perhaps so utterly incon-
ceivable ; but this Perhaps is probably the most
daring that has ever been posited, and is equivalent
to the gravest expression of doubt.

Et une fois
ou deux il connut par de tels soirs de ces joies qu’on serait tenté,
si elles ne subissaient avec tant de violence le choc en retour de
l’inquiétude brusquement arrêtée, d’appeler des joies calmes, parce
qu’elles consistent en un apaisement: il était allé passer un instant
à un raout chez le peintre et s’apprêtait à le quitter; il y laissait
Odette muée en une brillante étrangère, au milieu d’hommes à qui ses
regards et sa gaieté qui n’étaient pas pour lui, semblaient parler de
quelque volupté, qui serait goûtée là ou ailleurs (peut-être au «Bal
des Incohérents» où il tremblait qu’elle n’allât ensuite) et qui
causait à Swann plus de jalousie que l’union charnelle même parce
qu’il l’imaginait plus difficilement; il était déjà prêt à passer la
porte de l’atelier quand il s’entendait rappeler par ces mots (qui en
retranchant de la fête cette fin qui l’épouvantait, la lui rendaient
rétrospectivement innocente, faisaient du retour d’Odette une chose
non plus inconcevable et terrible, mais douce et connue et qui
tiendrait à côté de lui, pareille à un peu de sa vie de tous les
jours, dans sa voiture, et dépouillait Odette elle-même de son
apparence trop brillante et gaie, montraient que ce n’était qu’un
déguisement qu’elle avait revêtu un moment, pour lui-même, non en vue
de mystérieux plaisirs, et duquel elle était déjà lasse), par ces mots
qu’Odette lui jetait, comme il était déjà sur le seuil: «Vous ne
voudriez pas m’attendre cinq minutes, je vais partir, nous
reviendrions ensemble, vous me
ramèneriez
chez moi.
