アンの愛情 第三章

Chapter III Greeting and Farewell(8)

原文
"Where's all your philosophy gone, Anne?" "It's all submerged under a great, swamping wave of loneliness and homesickness. I've longed for three years to go to Redmond--and now I'm going--and I wish I weren't! Never mind! I shall be cheerful and philosophical again after I have just one good cry. I MUST have that, 'as a went'--and I'll have to wait until I get into my boardinghouse bed tonight, wherever it may be, before I can have it. Then Anne will be herself again. I wonder if Davy has come out of the closet yet."
