III - Outdoor Sketches
The voice of the leaves--
a song
Clearer than the rustling
of robes
Brighter than the most
diaphanous colours.
Hector de Saint-Denys Garneau

La voix des feuilles---
Une chanson
Plus claire un froissement
De robes plus claires aux plus
transparentes couleurs.
Hector de Saint-Denys Garneau (1912-1943)
de Regards et Jeux dans L'espace, 1937
