Translations for canon in French
Here are paragraphs from public domain books translated:
This chancellor was a pleasant man. He was Des Roches le Masle, canon of Notre Dame, who had formerly been valet of a bishop, who introduced him to his Eminence as a perfectly devout man. The cardinal trusted him, and therein found his advantage. | Ce chancelier était un plaisant homme. Ce fut Des Roches le Masle, chanoine à Notre-Dame, et qui avait été autrefois valet de chambre du cardinal, qui le proposa à Son Éminence comme un homme tout dévoué. Le cardinal s’y fia et s’en trouva bien. |
