He looked at the carven screen as a lost soul might look at the gate of Hades; he felt now that if a sound should come from beyond it he would shriek out, he would stop up his ears; that if the figure of the Unseen should become visible, he must die at the first glimpse of it.
3
Il regardait le paravent sculpté comme une âme perdue regarderait la porte des Enfers ; il sentait à présent que si un son venait de l'autre côté, il pousserait un cri, se boucherait les oreilles ; si la silhouette de l'Invisible devenait visible, il mourrait au premier regard.
