The nuns of Pondevaux received me among them with great kindness. They gave me a large room, which I partitioned off into three small ones. I assisted at all the pious exercises of the place. Deceived by my fashionable appearance and my plump figure, the good nuns treated me as if I was a person of high distinction. This afflicted me, and I undeceived them.

Wisps of straw and ears of barley drooped down through the rotten rafters and gaping boards that made the floor of the granary above.英文原著 · 《AFTER DARK》
