The nights are very cold, and there being nothing but gratings in the windows, the men were obliged to walk the whole night long to keep from freezing, and if they can meet with the friendly embrace of slumber at all, الليالي شديدة البرودة ، ولم يكن هناك سوى حواجز شبكية في النوافذ ، اضطر الرجال إلى المشي طوال الليل حتى لا يتجمدوا ، وإذا استطاعوا أن يجتمعوا مع عناق ودود للنوم على الإطلاق ، it was during the day when the sun would shed its kindly beams upon us and so impart sufficient warmth to our bodies to keep us from shivering. كان ذلك في النهار عندما تنثر الشمس أشعتها اللطيفة علينا وتضفي الدفء الكافي على أجسادنا لمنعنا من الارتعاش.

Ukrywaliśmy pieniądze w podeszwach butów, guzikach i w jakikolwiek sposób mogliśmy przechytrzyć buntowników. While we were thus engaged, a cruel looking rebel officer came in, followed by three rebel soldiers bearing a table and blank books, Kiedy byliśmy tak zaręczeni, wszedł okrutnie wyglądający oficer rebeliantów, a za nim trzech żołnierzy-rebeliantów niosących stół i czyste książki, The officer called out: "Attention ! prisoners, form in line." Some guards were in front and rear of us and we were ordered not to move or talk. Oficer zawołał: „Uwaga! Więźniowie ustawiają się w kolejce”. Kilku strażników było z przodu iz tyłu i nakazano nam nie ruszać się ani rozmawiać.

Солдат, который взятый в плен в долине Вирджинии, сразу же преследуется (с) видениями этого мрачного логова и он уклоняется от входа в место, столь полное горьких переживаний, которым, как хорошо известно, оно известно.
