Ceci plaisait beaucoup au peuple et n’avait pas peu contribué à lui donner accès près de tous les esprits. Il était dans la chaumière et dans la montagne comme chez lui. Il savait dire les choses les plus grandes dans les idiomes les plus vulgaires. Parlant toutes les langues, il entrait dans toutes les âmes.\n(Describing Bishop Myriel) Having been born in Provence, he easily became familiarized with all the [Occitan] dialects of the South. He would say, Eh bé! moussu, sès sagé?, as in the lower Languedoc, and Onté anaras passa? as in the Alps' lowlands, and Puerte un bouen moutou embe un bouen froumage grase, as in the upper Dauphiny. People loved this, and it had helped him greatly to get close access to all kinds of temperaments. Whether he was in a cottage or up in a mountain, he would feel at home. He knew how to speak of the highest things using the lowliest vulgar expressions. By speaking every tongue, he entered every soul."

Ceci plaisait beaucoup au peuple et n’avait pas peu contribué à lui donner accès près de tous les esprits. Il était dans la chaumière et dans la montagne comme chez lui. Il savait dire les choses les plus grandes dans les idiomes les plus vulgaires. Parlant toutes les langues, il entrait dans toutes les âmes.\n(Describing Bishop Myriel) Having been born in Provence, he easily became familiarized with all the [Occitan] dialects of the South. He would say, Eh bé! moussu, sès sagé?, as in the lower Languedoc, and Onté anaras passa? as in the Alps' lowlands, and Puerte un bouen moutou embe un bouen froumage grase, as in the upper Dauphiny. People loved this, and it had helped him greatly to get close access to all kinds of temperaments. Whether he was in a cottage or up in a mountain, he would feel at home. He knew how to speak of the highest things using the lowliest vulgar expressions. By speaking every tongue, he entered every soul."
