Synopsis
Excerpt from Chez Nos Gens
Il y en avait d'une parure plus opulente il n'y en avait pas de meilleures à. Voir. Ses quatre murs, solides, fortement liés, de tout repos, inspiraient d'abord confiance. Les pierres étaient bien vieilles mais, à. Chaque printemps, elles faisaient leur toilette à. La chaux, et il n'y avait guère de maisons aussi' blanches dans la paroisse. Et voyez-vous comme, sur cette blancheur mate et chaude, les volets verts se détachaient et réjouissaient l'oeil?. Une petite vigne canadienne, ac crochant ses vrilles aux balèvres du long pan, grimpait du solage aux acoyaux, courait sous le larmier, et allait vers le soleil pousser ses plus belles feuilles au pignon. Le toit aussi était agréable à regarder, avec ses bardeaux goudronnés, la lisière blanche de son cadre.
