Translations for emptiness in French
Here are paragraphs from public domain books translated:
All that I remember is that on that day, about five o’clock, he took me with him in a post-chaise. Without a word to me, he had had my luggage packed and put up behind the chaise with his own, and so he carried me off. I did not realize what I was doing until the town had disappeared and the solitude of the road recalled to me the emptiness of my heart. Then my tears again began to flow. | Tout ce que je me rappelle, c'est que ce jour-là, vers cinq heures, il me fit monter avec lui dans une chaise de poste. Sans me rien dire, il avait fait préparer mes malles, les avait fait attacher avec les siennes derrière la voiture, et il m'emmenait. Je ne sentis ce que je faisais que lorsque la ville eut disparu, et que la solitude de la route me rappela le vide de mon cœur. Alors les larmes me reprirent. |
