French translation verification please?

I believe this says something to the effect of: "In this verse we learn that it is Don Juan who, to conceal what he's done, sets fire to the fisherwoman's hut. If she had lit the fire herself, she would let it burn without asking for help." If I am wrong, please disillusion me.

Par ces vers nous apprenons que c’est D. Juan qui, pour couvrir sa fuite, a mis le feu à la cabane de la pêcheuse. Si elle l’avait incendiée elle-même, elle la laisserait brûler sans demander du secours.
