Indeed, a woman who lives all the year round in the country and does not talk scandal, nor whine, nor curtsey, is never flurried, nor depressed, nor in a flutter of curiosity, is a real marvel!
И в самом деле: женщина круглый год живет в деревне, в глуши – и не сплетничает, не пищит, не приседает, не волнуется, не давится, не дрожит от любопытства… чудеса!
