نقاشی را با احتیاط هرچه تمامتر بردم در قوطی حلبی خودم که جای دخلم بود گذاشتم و در پستوی اطاقم پنهان کردم.

With the greatest care I took the drawing, placed it in my tin box where I kept my money, and hid it in the back closet of my room.

P075.L02

به‌تعجیل وارد اتاقم شدم، کوزه را روی میز گذاشتم، رفتم قوطی حلبی ـ همان قوطی حلبی که غلکم بود و در پستوی اطاقم قایم کرده بودم ـ برداشتم

I hurried into my room, put the jar on the table, went and took the tin box—the same tin box that was my money box and that I had hidden in the back closet of my room—

P075.L03

آمدم دم در که به‌جای مزد قوطی را به پیرمرد کالسکه‌چی بدهم. ولی او غیبش زده بود. اثری از آثار او و کالسکه‌اش دیده نمی‌شد.

and came to the doorway to give the box to the old driver in place of wages. But he had vanished. No trace of him or his carriage could be seen.

P076.L01

تصویری را که دیشب از روی او کشیده بودم از توی قوطی حلبی بیرون آوردم، مقابله کردم؛ با نقاشی کوزه ذره‌ای فرق نداشت، مثل اینکه عکس یکدیگر بودند.

I took the picture I had drawn of her last night out of the tin box and compared them; it differed not a particle from the painting on the jar, as though they were copies of each other.
