Ma tante n’alla pas voir la haie d’épines roses, mais à tous moments je demandais à mes parents si elle n’irait pas, si autrefois elle allait souvent à Tansonville, tâchant de les faire parler des parents et grands-parents de Mlle Swann qui me semblaient grands comme des Dieux. →
My aunt did not go to see the pink hawthorn in the hedge, but at all hours of the day I would ask the rest of my family whether she was not going to go, whether she used not, at one time, to go often to Tansonville, trying to make them speak of Mlle. Swann's parents and grandparents, who appeared to me to be as great and glorious as gods.
