Translations for tempest in French
Here are paragraphs from public domain books translated:
The words unloosed a tempest. "Shame! Shame!" "Give him a hearing!" "Put him out!" "Shove him off the platform!" "Fair play!" emerged from a general roar of amusement or execration. The chairman was on his feet flapping both his hands and bleating excitedly. "Professor Challenger—personal—views—later," were the solid peaks above his clouds of inaudible mutter. The interrupter bowed, smiled, stroked his beard, and relapsed into his chair. Waldron, very flushed and warlike, continued his observations. Now and then, as he made an assertion, he shot a venomous glance at his opponent, who seemed to be slumbering deeply, with the same broad, happy smile upon his face. | Ces mots déchaînèrent une tempête. « Conspuez ! Conspuez ! — Qu’il parle ! — À la porte ! — la tribune ! — La question ! — Laissez faire ! » Les brocards se mêlaient aux imprécations. Le président, debout, très excité, frappait dans ses mains, bêlait : « Le professeur Challenger… Plus tard… Vues personnelles… » Cela seul émergea, comme des pics émergent d’un nuage. L’interrupteur s’inclina, sourit, peigna sa barbe et se renfonça dans sa chaise. Waldron, très rouge, très belliqueux, poursuivit son discours. De temps à autre, il jetait un regard empoisonné à son adversaire. Challenger semblait profondément assoupi. Le même sourire béat lui élargissait la figure. |
