Mais en même temps (à cause du caractère des
impressions toujours urbaines que Venise donne presque en pleine mer,
sur ces flots où le flux et le reflux se font sentir deux fois par
jour, et qui tour à tour recouvrent à marée haute et découvrent à
marée basse les magnifiques escaliers extérieurs des palais), comme
nous l'eussions fait à Paris sur les boulevards, dans les
Champs-Élysées, au Bois, dans toute large avenue à la mode, parmi la
lumière poudroyante du soir, nous croisions les femmes les plus
élégantes, presque toutes étrangères, et qui, mollement appuyées
sur les
coussins
de leur équipage flottant, prenaient la file,
s'arrêtaient devant un palais où elles avaient une amie à aller voir,
faisaient demander si elle était là; et, tandis qu'en attendant la
réponse elles préparaient à tout hasard leur carte pour la laisser,
comme elles eussent fait à la porte de l'hôtel de Guermantes, elles
cherchaient dans leur guide de quelle époque, de quel style était le
palais, non sans être secouées comme au sommet d'une vague bleue par
le remous de l'eau étincelante et cabrée, qui s'effarait d'être
resserrée entre la gondole dansante et le marbre retentissant.

it back returns upon a nether course
Till fired with ardour fresh
recruited
in its humble spring season
It rises up on high all summer till its wearied course
Turns into autumn.

Then the streams which it

receives and carries down to the sea are forced back as it spreads to meet them, and so it floods with their water the fields it does not reach itself.
