Light O' the Morning: The Story of an Irish Girl — Page 7

English → Chinese CHAPTER I. Level 4/10

At that moment loud, strong steps were heard in the hall; a hearty voice exclaimed:

就在那一刻,走廊里传来了响亮有力的脚步声;一个爽朗的声音喊道:

"Where's Light o' the Morning? Where have you hidden yourself, witch?"

「晨曦之光在哪里?你把自己藏到哪里去了,小妖精?」

"It's father," said Nora.

「是父亲,」诺拉说。

She said the words with a sort of gasp of rejoicing, and the next moment had dashed out of the room.

她说这几个字时带着一种欣喜若狂的哽咽,下一刻便冲出了房间。
