Apartado de las maniobras políticas de los militares y sin hacer caso de los tumultos callejeros de los estudiantes, había ido almacenando en su librería otras cosas que la gente deseaba comprar, como hilos y agujas, hilados de lana brillantemente coloreados, platos, relojes, chalecos y calcetines de punto, zapatos de cuero y guantes de invierno, libritos de notas, estilográficas, zapatos de tenis, lápices y botellas de goma para el agua caliente.
Three large tapestries to a Lady Vera at Areus, one hundred bales of woolen yarn
Tres grandes tapices para una tal Lady Vera en Areus, un centenar de fardos de hilo de lana
I say "beloved" with no irony because I'm certain that she did very much love them, and when she recollected Drusilla and Lucinda (for those were their incomparable names) her ancient trembling voice cracked with emotion, and she told me "how dear, how dear" the little girls were to her, and how in the chill depths of the war she had to search high and low for woolen yarn in order to knit them stockings.
He dicho «queridas» sin ironía porque estoy seguro de que les tuvo mucho cariño, pues, cuando evocaba a Drusila y Lucinda (que éstos eran sus incomparables nombres) y me hablaba de ellas, su voz de anciana temblaba de emoción y no se cansaba de decirme cuánto quería a las muchachitas y cómo, en los helados inviernos de la guerra, tuvo que remover cielo y tierra para encontrar hilo de lana con que hacerles medias.
