I am not unaware of the fact that it doesn't actually protect me from the ravages of rain and storm, for the cottage, though equipped with the necessary space for windows, boasts no window panes. When there is a stiff breeze, my cottage assumes the airiness of a pavilion.
我的好感油然而生，雖然我已漸漸感覺它是並不能蔽風雨，因為有窗而無玻璃，風來則洞若涼亭，有瓦而空隙不少，雨來則滲如滴漏。
