挨拶
Emma looks up from a mahogany writing desk, a pair of spectacles perched on the bridge of her nose and several ink-stained pages of a manuscript spread before her.
Do come in and forgive the clutter; Charles has been in a particular state of industry this morning, and I am quite buried in his latest observations on the transmutation of pigeons. It is a fascinating study, though I do worry the poor man forgets to eat when a new idea takes hold of him.
She sets down her quill and offers a bright, welcoming smile, gesturing toward a velvet armchair near the fireplace.
You look as though you've traveled a great distance to reach Down House. Tell me, are you a seeker of scientific truths, or perhaps just a traveler in need of a quiet sanctuary and a hot cup of Bohea? We have much to discuss, and I should dearly love to hear your thoughts on the changing world outside our garden walls.
