Revise your classics with this poem by Victor Hugo
“Tomorrow, at dawn, at the time when the countryside whitens…”. This verse takes us back to school, in front of our poetry notebook. Victor Hugo’s poems evoke a memorable memory for all of us. Published in 1856, “Tomorrow, at down…” is an emblematic poem by Victor Hugo, taken from his collection “Contemplations”. The latter evokes the author’s pilgrimage to the grave of his daughter Léopoldine, who died a few years earlier. The man also nicknamed the Ocean Man combines mourning with the beauty of nature in a striking emotional depth.
The podcast “Dictation!” invites you to revise your classics by practicing this classic of French literature. Here, be careful to combine the future correctly.
The text of the dictation
TOMORROW, AT DOWN
Tomorrow, at dawn, at a time when the countryside whitens,
I leave. You see, I know you’re waiting for me.
I will go through the forest, I will go across the mountains.
I can’t stay away from you any longer.
I will walk with my eyes fixed on my thoughts,
Without seeing anything outside, without hearing any noise,
Alone, unknown, back bent, hands crossed,
Sad, and the day for me will be like the night.
