pectus and not the humerus . — He is strong, they say. Yes, strong figuratively as a market porter is literally; strong through the muscles, through the fiber or through the marrows. “They have strong heads.” Yes, like mules, like a donkey. That is why they are thought to be strong heads: they are merely very obstinate, pursuing their course. Some people are stubborn about what they want; and these are stubborn about what they think.

T31. The place circumstance stays within the body and receives no inferred calendar date. Reservoir and source retain the distinction between storage and origin. The negative obligation remains; no additional philosophical explanation replaces the water image.
T430. The roman place circumstance remains in the body, with plain A and spaces in Villeneuve Saint Georges. No individual calendar date is supplied. The reservoir/source distinction and prohibition retain the semicolon and printed negative.
T32. The repeated quantities and all soul/entrails/brain/spinal-marrow distinctions remain concrete. Much before entrails retains the source’s mass-like treatment rather than describing literal numbers of organs. Brain/brains contextually distinguishes cerveau/cervelle , and spinal marrow preserves the moëlle épinière wording in the anatomy metaphor. Through and through reads tout entier as referring to the abbreviated person, not an added complete anatomical object. The source-editor partial name brackets and Bernardin question mark remain; [Me] is a broader English bracket counterpart of printed M[oi] , with no unmarked name expansion. The unenhanced native 814 names crop shows both initial C and l in Cl[auzel]. Canonical color/native comparison identifies the accented e of M[ol]é on the baseline; a detached high trace is not certified as another character. French retains the literal masculine tout entier after feminine moëlle épinière , while the English uses the contextual reference to the person. The final plural movement/return relations and both mobile terms remain; no person’s identity beyond the printed names is supplied.
T431. The evening/place circumstance remains roman in the body. All six bracketed name/pronoun expansions are printed editorial material, including the question mark inside B[ernardin?]; they are not new restored losses. The Moi phrase and de cervelle remain separate complete parentheses. The three moëlle forms retain diaereses supported by original-size color; paired marks have soft contours. Native pixels show M[ol]é with an accented baseline e after the closing bracket, followed by the colon. A detached high trace in the color witness is not certified as another letter or punctuation. No additional name expansion is made. The comparison retains beaucoup/peu/point , literal masculine tout entier after feminine moëlle épinière , repeated mobiles and the final perpetual/never/without qualifications. All text is roman; the repeated comma-separated predicates are not supplied with verbs. The bounded independent comparison agrees with the named name/diacritic contours at the stated qualified level.
T33. The opening fragment and both seem formulations remain. Without love and only retain the paradox and restriction. All three motives in the first group and all five in the second remain, including finally. Gratitude renders reconnaissance here rather than recognition of identity. Jesuitists preserves the locally printed Jésuitistes , distinct from jésuites in neighboring passages; it does not identify a newly established group.
T34. The nominal the naïve retains the aesthetic category without reducing it to simple credulity. The true and truth preserve vrai/vérité , including their unusual parenthetic relation. The first/second order, both more comparisons, final and/above-all/always and purer remain. Mr. renders the raised-r abbreviation in ordinary English. The paragraph continues through 815’s first two lines; the source separator, not the page turn, ends it.
T433. The complete date 8 janvier is retained; in the French source, the title before de Turenne has a distinctly raised small r and is not expanded. The quoted le naïf remains roman, with its diaeresis qualified at original-size color level. The two numbered adverbs and the parenthesis preserve the vrai/vérité distinction. The whole paragraph continues onto 815 without a new paragraph or lexical loss. The intact s’y/toujours starts and the rest of the incoming color strip remain readable foreground. Aussi , the three plus comparisons, the comma/dash and repeated et/surtout/toujours are retained. The bounded independent comparison agrees with the named date/title/upper-mark limits and incoming s’y/toujours readings; all contour qualifications remain.
T35. The repeated spinning and the future negative remain. No one renders the indefinite on under negation; the object is still the speaker’s cocoons. The final fragment leaves the matter to God without adding an outcome. The idiomatic English present in As God pleases renders the source’s future plaira without completing its fragment.
T434. Soye retains y . The two present file forms and first-person possessive remain, followed by the negative future and separate Comme fragment. An isolated vertical mark in the outer margin does not constitute a source note call or body punctuation. The folded dévidera opening remains identifiable foreground.
T36. The repeated strong/head terms preserve the passage’s wordplay instead of resolving it into headstrong everywhere. The two Latin anatomical nouns remain roman in the body: pectus can mean breast or, figuratively, heart or mind; humerus means shoulder, also upper arm or its bone. The contextual contrast can be glossed the breast or heart, not the shoulder, without certifying one exclusive figurative sense or identifying a quotation. Complete electronic Lewis–Short entries (1879) supplied this later lexical control; no original dictionary image was inspected and the printed humerus is not normalized to umerus . Market porter renders fort de la halle , supported by the Académie’s later 1835 entry. Pursuing their course reads suivant leur pointe through the 1798 Académie sense of persisting in an undertaking with sustained vigor. The singular fiber, plural marrows, merely/very and wanting/thinking distinction remain. English uses a period after humerus where the French has a comma before the dash.
T435. The complete date 11 janvier and one paragraph are preserved. Both 1 stems/feet remain identifiable in the original-size color margin. Fort/force/forte/fortes repetitions, literal pectus and humerus , and all associated text are roman; no Latin italics are supplied. In the French source, the comma/dash, negative non , figurative/literal comparison, two Oui answers, single quotation and the want/think contrast remain. Moëlles has paired upper e components with soft contours qualified. The restrictive ne...que retains très . The folded l’est/pour/tés/ceux-ci beginnings are identifiable; the entê-/tés wrap is joined without a loss.
T37. The future admission, comparison, a few and no remain. Tune renders air as a piece of music; the text does not say that the harp makes no sound. This stable entry also occurs in the earlier sample and must retain its existing identifiers and navigation when reconciled.
T436. The complete qualified date 13 janvier remains: the first stem/foot and the second digit’s two curves are visible in the color margin. Original-size color and native 347 both show the literal historical form avoûrai , with a raised circumflex-like contour over u and no intervening e before r ; the bounded independent comparison agrees. The earlier first-reader avouerai was a transcription error, now explicitly corrected. The parenthetic future avoûrai , relative description, quelques and negative aucun remain. The margin stroke beside the paragraph is not a lexical mark or apparatus call.
T8. The printed form avoûrai is retained. The parenthetical I will admit it renders the future explicitly. The image sets a few beautiful sounds against the absence of a tune; it acknowledges both achievement and incompletion. Personal failure is an editorial search tag, not a verdict on Joubert’s life.
T38. Voyant is read through the recurring contrast between direct sight and tentative intellectual movement, without adding a supernatural faculty. Both alternatives and the comparative remain.
T437. The comparative statement retains both alternatives linked by ou . Tâtonneur retains its raised circumflex-like upper component at the qualified color level. No individual date is supplied.
T39. Could preserves the conditional introduction, and most retains its superlative scope. All three qualities remain in order, without turning this notebook proposition into an external historical claim.
T438. The complete date 14 janvier retains the identifiable 1 and crossbar/stem of 4 despite nearby show-through. The conditional pourroit , colon/dash, superlative le plus and three named objects remain. The peu-/ples wrap is complete; all text is roman.
T40. All three soul formulations remain, with our only in the final clause. Even qualifies the sense of touch, and wholly retains the masculine tout entier relation to the sense, not a claim that the soul itself is entire. French literally prints ouië with the diaeresis over e , and vuë ; those forms are preserved without imposing unusual English spellings.
T439. Original-size color and native 347 show literal ouië , with the diaeresis over e and an ordinary dot over i , rather than normalized ouïe . Vuë likewise retains paired upper e components. The compressed native components and soft color contours remain qualified. The three soul formulations, même , notre and masculine tout entier remain literal. The attouchement line wrap is complete and supplies no new paragraph or loss. The bounded independent original-size color/native 347 comparison confirms this upper-mark placement with the stated contour limits.
