🔊 The band augmented every moment. Near the Rue des Billettes, a man of lofty stature, whose hair was turning gray, and whose bold and daring mien was remarked by Courfeyrac, Enjolras, and Combeferre, but whom none of them knew, joined them. Gavroche, who was occupied in singing, whistling, humming, running on ahead and pounding on the shutters of the shops with the butt of his triggerless pistol, paid no attention to this man.

队伍每时每刻都在壮大。在比雷特街附近,一个身材高大、头发花白、面容刚毅的男子加入了他们,古费拉克、安灼拉和公白飞都注意到了他那大胆无畏的神态,但谁也不认识他。伽弗洛什正忙着唱歌、吹口哨、哼曲子,跑到前面去,用他那把没有扳机的手枪枪托敲打商店的百叶窗,根本没有留意这个人。
