It had been years since I had come any closer to one than James Whitcomb Riley's verses on the subject. But I could look back on them almost with nostalgia, for those I had known had a certain coziness and a definite privacy.
多年以来,我都没有比 James Whitcomb Riley 关于这个主题的诗句更接近。但我几乎可以怀旧地回顾他们,因为我所知道的那些人有一定的舒适感和明确的隐私。
