She knew that there was to be a consultation that day, and though she had only recently got up after a confinement (she had given birth to a daughter at the end of the winter), and though she had many troubles and cares of her own, she left her baby and another little girl of hers who was ill, and called to hear Kitty's fate, which was to be decided that day.
Sapeva che in quel giorno si sarebbe tenuto il consulto e, pur avendo di recente lasciato il letto (aveva dato alla luce una bambina alla fine dell’inverno), pur avendo molte pene e affanni da parte sua, lasciata la neonata e una bambina che si era ammalata, era venuta per sapere della sorte di Kitty che in quel giorno si decideva.
