London, too, was a revelation to her with its big buildings, its surging crowds of white men, its marks of civilization everywhere, and, girl of the outdoors that she had ever been, her presentation at Court, with all that went before and after of the frivolities and conventionalities of city life, must have been a still greater marvel to her. But the greatest surprise of all awaited her. One day at a public reception a new-comer was announced, and without warning she found herself face to face with that Captain of her heart's youthful devotion! There was a moment's silence, a strained expression in the young wife's dark eyes, then Captain John Smith bent over the hand of John Rolfe's wife with the courtly deference he had given in Virginian days to the little Indian girl who was his loyal friend.
"They told me you were dead!"
伦敦对她来说也是一个启示，那里有高大的建筑物，涌动的白人人群，到处都是文明的标志，还有，作为一个曾经的户外女孩，她在宫廷里的表现，以及城市生活的轻浮和传统之前和之后的一切，对她来说一定是一个更大的奇迹。但最大的惊喜在等着她。一天，在一个公开招待会上，一个新来的人被宣布了，没有任何征兆，她就发现自己面对面地见到了那个船长，她心中年轻的忠诚！沉默了一会儿，年轻妻子的黑眼睛里流露出紧张的神情，然后约翰·史密斯（探险家）弯下腰去握住约翰 · 罗尔夫妻子的手，表现出他在弗吉尼亚时对这个印第安小女孩——他忠实的朋友——的彬彬有礼的尊重。“他们告诉我你死了!”
