Anneke dit à sa mère : « Je hurlais, mais, quand madame a ôté
les croûtes de dessus mes oreilles, c’était comme si on me les
débouchait et qu’on me desserrait la tête : j’étais tout d’un coup
allégée. » Eh bien, la sœur de l’école s’était plainte qu’Anneke
apprenait mal, mais n’en avait pas recherché la cause et ne s’était
pas préoccupée de la carapace qui enserrait l’intelligence si vive de
l’enfant : cette carapace grouillante était fort visible cependant. Le
curé, dans la soutane de qui vit cette famille, ne s’était pas non plus
préoccupé du dépérissement de la petite. Non, l’enfant était, dans
cet état, envoyée de grand matin à l’église : cela suffisait.
Dans leur rue, il y a cinq à six fermes de paysans aisés comme
eux, qui tous grouillent dans une saleté inouïe.
Il doit en être ainsi dans les autres provinces belges, partout où
la prière est prisée au-dessus de toute hygiène.

Je vois rouge, quand le petit Émile lève son regard limpide, câlin
vers moi, à la pensée que, dans quinze ans, quand il commencera à
sortir de sa gaîne, on le mettrait devant les machines à tuer, et je me
demande si je n’ai pas eu tort de faire placer un couvercle sur le
puits pour qu’il n’y tombe pas… Dieu, quel embarras, une vieille
femme qui a tué un petit garçon… Eh bien, quoi donc ? parce qu’il
n’a pas l’âge… — elle est forte celle-là — ou parce qu’il n’est pas de
l’autre côté du fossé, je ne peux pas l’avoir fait culbuter doucement
dans ce puits ?… ou parce que je ne porte pas une baïonnette ?…
De mieux en mieux. Foutez-moi la paix ! Je déborde de dégoût et de
rancune contre ces abjections !
Mileke, barbouillé de boue, les menottes noires, en robe rouge
délavée, est assis dans la porte de la ferme sur une petite chaise
basse, un bâton en main qu’il écorche avec un grand couteau ; il
n’écoute pas les mots tendres que je lui dis, extasiée que je suis de
le trouver là, évoquant, lui et toute l’ambiance, un tableau de Jacob
Smits. Quand il a fini, il lève ses yeux liquides.
— Un poeneke [2] ? me dit-il, en avançant sa bouche vers moi.

Une autre fois, je passe le soir avec elle par le village ; je lui
montre la lune.
— Oui, il y en avait aussi une au-dessus de la maison de l’épicier,
me répond-elle.
Cela me revient comme une brise parfumée, et ce n’est pas un
petit bienfait au milieu des horreurs que nous lisons et dont la terreur
