Chapter 10-39 The Indian Gentleman
She did not like to own to herself that her only companion could feel and hear nothing. She used to put her in a chair sometimes and sit opposite to her on the old red footstool, and stare and pretend about her until her own eyes grow large with something which was almost like fear- particularly at night when everything was so still, when the only sound in the attic was the occasional sudden scurry and squeak of Melchisedec's family in the wall.
【译文】
她不愿意对自己承认，她唯一的同伴什么也感觉不到，什么也听不到。她有时把她放在一张椅子上，坐在她对面那只旧红脚凳上，假装盯着她看，直到她自己的眼睛睁得大大的，几乎带着恐惧——尤其是在寂静的夜里，阁楼里唯一的声音是墙壁上偶尔突然传来的Melchisedec一家的匆忙和吱吱声。
