Just as the word "girl" is identical to our sight but not to our hearing, and means oh! quite the same thing throughout us all in all its meanings, so that identity of nature which we share comes often to the surface in different guise.

So she did not regret that life of estrangement and solitude.英文原著 · 《AN ICELAND FISHERMAN》
