During all my first sleep, I was following the windings of an unknown road; total obscurity environed me; rain pelted me; I was burdened with the charge of a little child: a very small creature, too young and feeble to walk, and which shivered in my cold arms, and wailed piteously in my ear.
Durante este primer sueño yo seguía un camino desconocido rodeada de una oscuridad absoluta. La lluvia me calaba y yo iba cargada con un niñito, demasiado pequeño para andar solo y cuyo llanto sonaba de un modo lastimero en mis oídos.
