At the moment when he was about to retire, she was cheered with a ray of hope, for she thought he was about to speak; but his lips moved without any sound leaving his mouth, and making a powerful effort to control himself, he sent back to his heart the words that were about to escape from his lips, and went out.
Por eso, en el momento en que iba él a retirarse, ella tuvo un rayo de esperanza; porque creyó que era él quien iba a hablar; pero sus labios se movieron sin que ningún sonido saliera de su boca, y haciendo un esfuerzo sobre sí mismo, encerró en su corazón las palabras que iban a escapar de sus labios, y salió.
