Original Text:
Madame Anastasie Boujot est de première force sur les méditations, les étoiles la font palpiter, mais la lune lui arrache des larmes. Mr. Mathieu Boujot méprise profondément cet astre, dont la forme présente, lui rappelle ses nombreuses infortunes.

Translation:
Madame Anastasie Boujot is a first-class expert for meditation, the stars make her tremble, but the moon makes her cry. Monsieur Mathieu Boujot on the other hand profoundly dislikes this celestial body whose present form reminds him of his numerous misfortunes.
