“多年以前,当我还是个年轻人时,那个小姐住在那座山背后的山谷对面。我常骑马去与她约会;虽然路很长,但年轻人性子急——这位女士无疑是知道的,所以我骑得很快。但那位小姐很不友善,总是让我等啊等,一等就是几个小时吧。一天,久候不来之后,我勃然大怒。在我们约会的那个花园里不停地踱步,借着怒火折断她的一棵玫瑰树,把上面的一根树枝折走了。清醒之后,我立马将它藏进外套。事情就是这样。回家之后我把它种到花园里,它现在的情形这位女士已经看到了。当然这位女士要是喜欢的话,我愿意送根插条让她种在她家的花园里。听说英国人的花园很漂亮,到处绿油油的,不像我们的园子都被太阳烤焦了。”txt电子书分享平台

The Rose

Logan Pearsall Smith

The old lady had always been proud of the great rose…tree in her garden; and was fond of telling how it had grown from a cutting she had brought years before from Italy; when she was first married。 She and her husband had been travelling back in their carriage from Rome (it was before the time of railways); and on a bad piece of road south of Siena they had broken down; and had been forced to pass the night in a little house by the road…side。 The acmodation1 was wretched of course; she had spent a sleepless night; and rising early had stood; wrapped up; at her window; with the cool air blowing on her face; to watch th
