The old poet read these lines written in memory of old times in Faraway and of Hope's girlhood. 'The red was in the clover an'the blue was in the sky: There was music in the meadow, there was dancing in the rye; An'I heard a voice a calling to the flocks o'Faraway An'its echo in the wooded hills - Co'day! Go'day! Go'day! O fair was she - my lady love - an'lithe as the willow tree, An'aye my heart remembers well her parting words t'me. An'I was sad as a beggar-man but she was blithe an'gay An'I think o'her as I call the flocks Go'day! Go'day! Go'day!英文原著 · 《Eben Holden》
And yet after listening one seemed to hear a singular murmurous note, a pulsation, as if the crowd made noise by its mere living, a mellow hum of the eternal strife.

Farther down, before one of the cottages, a lady in black was walking demurely up and down, telling her beads. A good many persons of the pension had gone over to the Cheniere Caminada in Beaudelet's lugger to hear mass. Some young people were out under the wateroaks playing croquet. Pontellier's two children were there sturdy little fellows of four and five. A quadroon nurse followed them about with a faraway, meditative air.英文原著 · 《Awakening & Selected Short Stories》
Betty drew rein at the top of the bank and looked absently at the tree and into the foam covered pool beneath. At that moment her eyes saw nothing physical. They held the faraway light of the dreamer, the look that sees so much of the past and nothing of the present. Presently her reflections were broken by the actions of the pony. Madcap had thrown up her head, laid back her ears and commenced to paw the ground with her forefeet. Betty looked round to see the cause of Madcap's excitement. What was that! She saw a tall figure clad in brown leaning against the stone.英文原著 · 《Betty Zane》
'She won't have to,' I said. He cackled uproariously for a moment, then grew serious. 'Her father's rich,' he said, 'the richest man o' Faraway, an I guess she won't never hev anything t' dew but set'n sing an' play the melodium.'
'She can do as she likes,' I said. He stood a moment looking down as if meditating on the delights he had pictured. 'Gol!' he exclaimed suddenly. My subject had begun to study me, and I came away to escape further examination.英文原著 · 《Eben Holden》
I took his old hand in mine and raised it reverently to my lips. 'Hear'n 'em tell 'bout goin' t' the village, an' I says t' myself, "Uncle Eb," says I, "we'll hev t' be goin'. 'Tain' no place fer you in the village."'
'Holden,' said David Brower, 'don't ye never talk like that ag'in. Yer just the same as married t' this family, an' ye can't ever git away from us.'
And he never did until his help was needed in other and fairer fields, I am sure, than those of Faraway - God knows where.英文原著 · 《Eben Holden》
