这位老太太总以她花园中那棵巨大的玫瑰树为荣。她会津津有味地告诉你她头一次结婚时，从意大利带回来的一根枝条，是怎么样长成参天大树的。

The old lady had always been proud of the great rose-tree in her garden, and was fond of telling how it had grown from a cutting she had brought years before from Italy, when she was first married.

我使它的枝条蕃多，成为荣美，以致神伊甸园中的树都嫉妒它。

I made it beautiful with abundant branches, the envy of all the trees of Eden in the garden of God.
