原文
Anne and Priscilla looked at each other. Then Anne said slowly, "Phil
dear, we'd love to have you. But we may as well speak plainly. I'm
poor--Pris is poor--Stella Maynard is poor--our housekeeping will have
to be very simple and our table plain. You'd have to live as we would.
Now, you are rich and your boardinghouse fare attests the fact."
