Receive this

of our hairs:
Receive these crystal vials fill'd
With tears distill'd
From teeming eyes; to these we bring,
Each maid, her silver filleting,
To gild thy tomb; besides, these cauls,
These laces, ribbons, and these falls,
These veils, wherewith we use to hide
The bashful bride,
When we conduct her to her groom:
And all we lay upon thy tomb.

comme dans son élément naturel au milieu de tant de privilèges, que
quand elle demandait à ses parents s’il y avait quelqu’un à dîner, on
lui répondait par ces
syllabes
remplies de lumière, par le nom de ce
convive d’or qui n’était pour elle qu’un vieil ami de sa famille:
Bergotte; que, pour elle, la causerie intime à table, ce qui
correspondait à ce qu’était pour moi la conversation de ma
grand’tante, c’étaient des paroles de Bergotte sur tous ces sujets
qu’il n’avait pu aborder dans ses livres, et sur lesquels j’aurais
voulu l’écouter rendre ses oracles, et qu’enfin, quand elle allait
visiter des villes, il cheminait à côté d’elle, inconnu et glorieux,
comme les Dieux qui descendaient au milieu des mortels, alors je
sentis en même temps que le prix d’un être comme Mlle Swann, combien

douceur et l’impossibilité qu’il y aurait pour moi à être son ami, que

watching
place,
Awful what I see from hence--
A king, without regalia,
A God, without the thunder,
A child, without the heart for play;

From His first glory and cast away
On His own world, for me alone
To hold in hands created, crying--SON!
