| Back | Ranged on benches down the sides of the room, the eighty girls sat motionless and erect; a quaint assemblage they appeared, all with plain locks combed from their faces, not a curl visible; in brown dresses, made high and surrounded by a narrow tucker about the throat, with little pockets of holland (shaped something like a Highlander's purse) tied in front of their frocks, and destined to serve the purpose of a work-bag: all, too, wearing woollen stockings and country-made shoes, fastened with brass buckles. |

| Front | Las ochenta muchachas permanecían inmóviles, rígidas, todas iguales, con sus cabellos peinados lisos sobre las orejas, sin rizo alguno visible, vestidas de ropas oscuras, con un cuello estrecho y con un bolsillo grande en la parte delantera del uniforme (bolsillo que estaba destinado a hacer las veces de cesto de costura). |
