原文
"Jonas sent me some dear pink rosebuds for the evening--but--he isn't
coming himself. He said he had to lead a prayer-meeting in the slums! I
don't believe he wanted to come. Anne, I'm horribly afraid Jonas doesn't
really care anything about me. And I'm trying to decide whether I'll
pine away and die, or go on and get my B.A. and be sensible and useful."
