Get
Kathleen
Va
chercher
Kathleen
Get
Kathleen,
I
tell
you!
Call
the
doctor!
Va
chercher
Kathleen,
je
te
dis
! Appelle
le
médecin !
Is
it
alive?
Oh,
please,
God,
let
it
be.
Est-ce
qu’il
est
vivant ?
Oh,
s’il
te
plaît,
Dieu,
fais
qu’il
soit
vivant.
It's
alive.
It's
a
Negro
child.
A
newborn
baby
boy.
Il
est
vivant.
C’est
un
enfant
noir.
Un
nouveau-né.
What
kind
of
woman
Quel
genre
de
femme
Would
do
such
a
thing?
Fait
une
chose
pareille ?
Why
in
God's
name
Pourquoi
au
nom
de
Dieu
Is
my
husband
not
here?
Mon
mari
n’est
pas
là ?
I'm
such
a
fool!
Je
suis
si
stupide !
Why
did
I
say
Pourquoi
ai-je
dit
He
was
free
to
go?
Qu’il
était
libre
de
partir ?
What
am
I
to
do?
Que
dois-je
faire ?
Where
are
your
instructions,
Où
sont
tes
instructions,
My
dear?
Mon
cher ?
You
left
me
lists.
Tu
m’as
laissé
des
listes.
Everything
in
lists!
Tout
en
listes !
Well,
your
little
lists
Eh
bien,
tes
petites
listes
Aren't
very
helpful,
Ne
sont
pas
très
utiles,
I
fear!
J’ai
peur !
Each
day,
the
maids
Chaque
jour,
les
femmes
de
chambre
Trudge
up
the
hill.
Montent
la
colline.
The
hired
help
arrives.
Le
personnel
arrive.
I
never
stopped
to
think
Je
n’ai
jamais
pensé
They
might
Qu’ils
pourraient
Have
lives
beyond
out
lives...
Avoir
des
vies
au-delà
de
nos
vies...
We
found
her
in
the
cellar
of
a
home
on
the
next
Nous
l’avons
trouvée
dans
la
cave
d’une
maison
du
quartier
Block.
She's
a
washwoman
there.
Her
name
is
Sarah.
D’à
côté.
Elle
est
blanchisseuse
là-bas.
Elle
s’appelle
Sarah.
Where
will
you
take
her?
Où
vas-tu
l’emmener ?
To
the
charity
ward.
Eventually
she
will
have
to
À
l’hôpital
de
charité.
Finalement,
elle
devra
Stand
trial.
Être
jugée.
What
charges?
Pour
quelles
accusations ?
Well,
attempted
murder,
I
should
think.
Eh
bien,
tentative
de
meurtre,
je
suppose.
What's
going
to
happen
to
the
baby?
Qu’est-ce
qu’il
va
arriver
au
bébé ?
They
have
places
for
unfortunates
like
this.
Ils
ont
des
endroits
pour
les
malheureux
comme
ça.
I
will
take
responsibility
for
mother
and
child.
Je
prendrai
la
responsabilité
de
la
mère
et
de
l’enfant.
Please
take
Miss
Sarah
inside.
S’il
te
plaît,
emmène
Mlle
Sarah
à
l’intérieur.
What
kind
of
woman
Quel
genre
de
femme
Would
do
what
I've
done-
Ferais
ce
que
j’ai
fait -
Open
the
door
Ouvrir
la
porte
To
such
chaos
and
pain!
À
un
tel
chaos
et
à
une
telle
douleur !
You
would
have
Tu
aurais
Gently
closed
the
door,
Gentillement
fermé
la
porte,
And
gently
turned
the
key,
Et
gentiment
tourné
la
clé,
And
gently
told
me
not
to
look,
Et
gentiment
me
dit
de
ne
pas
regarder,
For
fear
of
what
I'd
see.
De
peur
de
ce
que
je
verrais.
What
kind
of
woman
Quel
genre
de
femme
Would
that
have
made
me?
Cela
aurait-il
fait
de
moi ?
