She was one of those pretty and charming young girls who sometimes are born, as if by a slip of fate, into a family of clerks. She had no dowry, no expectations, no way of being known, understood, loved, and wedded by any rich and distinguished man; so she let herself be married to a little clerk of the Ministry of Public Instruction. She dressed plainly because she could not dress well, but she was as unhappy as if she had really fallen from a higher station; since with women there is neither caste nor rank, for beauty, grace and charm take the place of birth and breeding. Natural ingenuity, instinct for what is elegant, a supple mind are their sole hierarchy, and often make of women of the people the equals of the very greatest ladies.
她同那些美丽又迷人的年轻女子一样，因为阴差阳错的命运，出生在一个小职员的家里。她没有嫁妆，也没有期盼，更没有办法让一个有钱又有地位的男人认识她，了解她，爱她，并且娶她。于是她只好让自己和一个教育部的小科员草草完婚。她穿着朴素，因为她没有钱去打扮得很华丽，不过她很不开心，好像自己真的是从高位上跌落下来似的。因为女人根本没有阶级和门第之分，她们的美貌、神采以及魅力替代了她们的出身和家世。而她们与生俱来的机警，超众的本能以及顺从的心思是她们唯一的等级，这使普通女子同地位最高的贵妇一样平起平坐。
