The next morning we would read that it was going to be a "warm, fine to set-fair day; much heat;" and we would dress ourselves in flimsy things, and go out, and, half-an-hour after we had started, it would commence to rain hard, and a bitterly cold wind would spring up, and both would keep on steadily for the whole day, and we would come home with colds and rheumatism all over us, and go to bed.
La mattina appresso leggemmo che sarebbe stata una «bella, calda, giornata». Ci vestimmo con gli abiti leggeri, e uscimmo, e mezz’ora dopo che eravamo partiti, si scatenò una fortissima pioggia, e si mise a imperversare un vento terribilmente freddo che durò tutto il giorno.
