Translations for panorama in French
Here are paragraphs from public domain books translated:
After a long pause, therefore, to recover my breath and my courage, I continued my ascent. Once I put my weight upon a rotten branch and swung for a few seconds by my hands, but in the main it was all easy climbing. Gradually the leaves thinned around me, and I was aware, from the wind upon my face, that I had topped all the trees of the forest. I was determined, however, not to look about me before I had reached the very highest point, so I scrambled on until I had got so far that the topmost branch was bending beneath my weight. There I settled into a convenient fork, and, balancing myself securely, I found myself looking down at a most wonderful panorama of this strange country in which we found ourselves. | Après une longue pause, dont j’avais besoin pour reprendre haleine et courage, je continuai mon ascension. Une branche pourrie vint à se rompre, et je restai un instant suspendu par les mains à la branche supérieure ; mais, somme toute, je grimpai sans trop de difficultés. Peu à peu, le feuillage mincit, le vent me fouetta la figure, je connus que je dominais tous les arbres de la forêt ; mais je me refusai à regarder autour de moi tant que je n’aurais pas atteint la cime, et je grimpai de plus belle, jusqu’à ce que je sentisse enfin ployer sous mon poids la dernière branche. Là, je m’installai entre deux rameaux en fourche, et, me balançant en sécurité, j’admirai le panorama. |
