| One lovely day about this time I set out once more to try my hand alone upon the aiguille. |
| Avalanches thundered incessantly from the aiguille Verte and the other mountains. |
| From there over twenty-four more pylons a cable one thousand four hundred meters long took us to the foot of the aiguille. |
| Once the orb appeared behind a rounded mass of snow which lay near the summit of the aiguille du Midi. |
| By the way, you were all reading about that ascent of the aiguille Verte, the other day? |
| Clouds at first gathered round the aiguille and Dme du Goter, casting the lower slopes of the mountain into intense gloom. |
