brouillard glacé: icy fog, or chilling mist
" Where the chilling vapors rest."
8. si j'étais oiseau, etc. : " O that I had wings like a dove ! for then would I fly away, and be at rest." Psalm Iv 6
This verse constitutes a part of one of the most beautiful anthems in our language. Byron has used the same thought in the closing lines of his poem " I would I vvere a careless child " :
"Oh that to me the wings were given
Which bear the turtle to her nest !
Then would I cieave the vault of heaven,
To flee away and be at rest."
