My name is Leah Penniman and I'm the founding co-director at Soul Fire Farm in Grafton, New York.

我叫莉亚·佩尼曼，是纽约格拉夫顿灵魂之火农场的联合创始人。

Penniman's convictions had passed into a riper and richer phase.

彭尼曼的信念已经进入了更加成熟和丰富的阶段。

" Aunt Penniman means the gentleman—the gentleman whose name I couldn't remember, " said Catherine.

“彭尼曼姨妈的意思是绅士——我记不起名字的绅士了，”凯瑟琳说。

" Aunt Penniman, " she said, in a tone that scared her companion, " have you taken the liberty . . . " ?

“彭尼曼阿姨，”她说，语气吓坏了她的同伴，“你敢冒昧… … ”？

She had never had a child of her own, and Catherine, whom she had done her best to invest with the importance that would naturally belong to a youthful Penniman, had only partly rewarded her zeal.

她从来没有自己的孩子，而凯瑟琳，她尽了最大的努力来赋予她一个自然属于年轻的彭尼曼的重要性，但她的热情只得到了部分回报。
