原文
The cheerful supper table, with the twins' bright faces, and Marilla's
matchless plum puffs . . . of which Davy ate four . . . did "hearten her
up" considerably after all. She had a good sleep that night and
awakened in the morning to find herself and the world transformed. It
had snowed softly and thickly all through the hours of darkness and the
beautiful whiteness, glittering in the frosty sunshine, looked like a
mantle of charity cast over all the mistakes and humiliations of the
past.
"Every morn is a fresh beginning, Every morn is the world made new,"
sang Anne, as she dressed.
