Lucy--to descend from bright heaven to earth, whereon there are shadows because there are hills--Lucy was at first plunged into despair, but settled after a little thought that it did not matter the very least. Now that she was engaged, the Emersons would scarcely insult her and were welcome into the neighbourhood. Lucy從明媚的天堂降臨塵世間，塵世間因為有群山所以有山陰，Lucy最開始陷入絕望，但思索片刻后，發(fā)覺這絲毫不重要便平復了心情。既然她訂婚了，Emerson一家就不怎么會侮辱她了，也會被鄰里接納。
