原文
"What a romantic old lane this it," said Diana, as they walked along its
twists and turns. It ran under patriarchal old firs whose branches met
above, creating a perpetual gloom in which nothing except moss could
grow. On either hand were brown wood floors, crossed here and there
by fallen lances of sunlight. All was very still and remote, as if the
world and the cares of the world were far away.
