Y luego, en las veladas, sólo se hablaba en polaco, aunque el capitán Znaniecki, refugiado de la oleada de asesinatos e incendios incitada por Metternich (y, lo más horripilante, perpetrados por campesinos polacos) que treinta años atrás había diezmado a la pequeña aristocracia rural y la intelectualidad, liberales y orientadas a la insurrección, de la parte austríaca de Polonia, estaba tan absorto por la política de su país de adopción como por las catástrofes que se abatían con regularidad sobre su patria.
And then in the evening only Polish was spoken, though Captain Znaniecki, a refugee from the wave of slaughter and arson incited by Metternich (and, horrifyingly, carried out by Polish peasants) which had decimated the liberal, insurrection-minded gentry and intelligentsia of the Austrian part of Poland thirty years earlier, was as engrossed by the politics of his adopted country as by the catastrophes that punctually befell his homeland.
