原文
"Yes, I suppose so," said Diana uncomfortably. She did not want to talk
of that. She would have preferred to have discussed the details of the
funeral--the splendid white velvet casket Mr. Gillis had insisted on
having for Ruby--"the Gillises must always make a splurge, even at
funerals," quoth Mrs. Rachel Lynde--Herb Spencer's sad face, the
uncontrolled, hysteric grief of one of Ruby's sisters--but Anne would
not talk of these things. She seemed wrapped in a reverie in which Diana
felt lonesomely that she had neither lot nor part.
