The moment Miss Scatcherd withdrew after afternoon school, I ran to Helen, tore it off, and thrust it into the fire: the fury of which she was incapable had been burning in my soul all day, and tears, hot and large, had continually been scalding my cheek; for the spectacle of her sad resignation gave me an intolerable pain at the heart.
Helen, le quité el cartel y lo arrojé al fuego. La furia que mi amiga era incapaz de sentir, había abrasado mi pecho durante todo aquel día y grandes y continuas lágrimas habían corrido por mis mejillas constantemente.
