原文
"Well, I don't know how he and the Sarah-cat will ever make out to
live together," said Stella pesimistically. "Cat-fights in the orchard
o'nights are bad enough. But cat-fights here in the livingroom are
unthinkable." In due time Aunt Jamesina arrived. Anne and Priscilla and
Phil had awaited her advent rather dubiously; but when Aunt Jamesina was
enthroned in the rocking chair before the open fire they figuratively
bowed down and worshipped her.
