translation.ca: No gaire temps després, quan Tom, despullat per ficar-se al llit, examinava sos vestits amarats a la llum d'una candela de seu, Sid es desperta; pero si per acas li vingué alguna terbola idea de fer provatures d'al·lusions, s'hi repensa, i serva quietud, perque lluca el perill en la mirada de Tom.
translation.en: Not long after, as Tom, all undressed for bed, was surveying his drenched garments by the light of a tallow dip, Sid woke up; but if he had any dim idea of making any "references to allusions," he thought better of it and held his peace, for there was danger in Tom's eye.
