I dipped my fingers into a vase of wall-flowers, wetted the gum, sealed down the envelope, and wrote on it this address: ‘Mr. –, Lodging at a cottage near the Farm, North-west of Wanderslore, Beechwood, Kent.’ And I prayed heaven for its safe delivery.
Metí los dedos en un jarrón de alhelíes, mojé el engomado, cerré el sobre y escribí en él esta dirección: «Señor…, Residente en una Casita cercana a la Granja al Noroeste de Wanderslore, Beechwood, Kent». Y rogué al cielo que llegara a su destino.
-- Cornelius at last broke the silence, -- "well, Rosa, everything changes in the realm of nature; the flowers of spring are succeeded by other flowers; and the bees, which so tenderly caressed the violets and the wall-flowers, will flutter with just as much love about the honey-suckles, the rose, the jessamine, and the carnation."
–En fin -continuó Van Baerle, interrumpiendo ese silencio- todo cambia en la Naturaleza: a las flores de la primavera suceden otras flores, y vemos a las abejas, que acarician tiernamente a las violetas y a los alhelíes, posarse con el mismo amor sobre las madreselvas, las rosas, los jazmines, los crisantemos y los geranios.
