The clouds of  fumée  have dazed the  abeille , a  nuage  of unknowing introduced into the smell-space of the city-hive.

Finger morphologically similar to the bones inside whale fins are used with careful articulation to pull out one of the mail-order comb-holding frames from the  ruche . A metal tool provides some assistance in this operation.     Un télégramme avait averti Hive-Maker d'une nouvelle maladie affectant les abeilles noires anglaises.
