Original Text:
Il n'ya pas à dire, il faut que je traverse ce diable de bois pour rentrer chez moi.... je suis fâché d'être resté si tard chez le voisin Rigolard, à faire un cent de piquet.... si j'avais réfléchi je n'en aurais fait qu'un demi-cent.

Translation:
It can't be helped. I'll have to walk through this damned little wood to get home..... why did I have to stay so late at neighbour Rigolard's just to finish a hundred point game of piquet.... had I known this, I had only played for fifty points.
