原文
"If I could only share the joke with some one!" she thought. "But I
can't. Diana is the only one I'd want to tell, and, even if I hadn't
sworn secrecy to Jane, I can't tell Diana things now. She tells
everything to Fred--I know she does. Well, I've had my first proposal. I
supposed it would come some day--but I certainly never thought it would
be by proxy. It's awfully funny--and yet there's a sting in it, too,
somehow."
