translation.ca: Alguns digueren que de tant en tant, dins la cova, lluia una remota llumeneta, i aleshores esclatava una cridoria entusiasmada, i una vintena d'homes anaven, arraimats, pel ressonant passadís avall; i aixo sempre acabava amb una atuidora decepció: no eren allí, els infants: no era sinó el llum d'un que cercava.
translation.en: Some said that now and then, in the cave, a far-away speck of light would glimmer, and then a glorious shout would burst forth and a score of men go trooping down the echoing aisle--and then a sickening disappointment always followed; the children were not there; it was only a searcher's light.
