Excerpt from Le Cyclone: Crevés!; Éraflés!; Sauvés!; Le Déjeuner du Cyclone; Au Retour
Le pâté de maisons qui fait face au Musée du Luxembourg été épargné; aussi le Aimée de sculpture. De jeunes hommes, des peintres, affi chent une joie indécente en un tel instant. 11 y a lieu de flétrir de pareils procédés. L'aquilon avait fait son oeuvre très exactement à minuit. Ou a pu devenir maître d'un foyer, peut-être alimenté par des mains criminelles. Le cyclone fait rage, toute une heure, et il avait atteint son maximum d'intensité à onze heures et demie.
