Children of minority groups and children who are homeless also take priority.

Oh, dear, if he had an address, he wouldn't be homeless.

" You lie, " said the waif. " You must lie gooder" .

" 你撒谎，" 流浪儿道，" 你必须撒得更好。"

And they had fed and clothed any number of waifs who slept in their cellar.

此处，还要给那些住宿在他家地下室里的流浪儿提供吃的穿的。

" On any animal with warm blood" . The waif slapped her.

" 对暖血动物都有效。" 流浪儿扇了她一巴掌。

It was kind of the epitome of the waif.

这是流浪儿的缩影。

The waif nodded. Arya nodded back, and in her best Braavosi said, " How many years have you" ?

流浪儿点点头。艾莉亚也点头回应，并用自己最流利的布拉佛斯语问，" 你几岁了？"

The group was looking for a street kid.

Scarlett said: " What a ragamuffin" ! as she kissed the child and turned a cheek for Rhett's lips.

" 好一个肮脏破烂的流浪儿！" 思嘉连气带笑地说，一面吻孩子，一面又转过脸去德她。

" And really you didn't marry an Arab waif after all, " said Meriem.

“事实上，你终究没有嫁给阿拉伯流浪儿， ” 梅姆说。

She only wanted to know that Jack loved the little Arab waif.

她只想知道杰克喜欢这个阿拉伯小流浪儿。

Poisons. She understood then. Every evening after prayer the waif emptied a stone flagon into the waters of the black pool.

毒药。她明白了。每晚祈祷之后，流浪儿都要将一个石壶倒空至黑水池中。

But before the waif could answer, the kindly man stepped into the chamber, smiling. " You have returned to us" .

流浪儿不及回答，慈祥的人微笑着走进屋子：" 你回到我们这儿来了。"

The Common Tongue came to the waif more quickly. One day at supper she turned to Arya, and asked, " Who are you" ?

流浪儿学通用语却比较快。某天晚餐时，她忽然扭头问艾莉亚，" 你是谁？"

" This is Meriem, my dear, " he said, and he told the story of the jungle waif in so far as he knew it.

“我是梅姆，的，”他说，并就他所知讲述了丛林流浪儿的故事。

His sisters, and a lady called Miss Watson, are all trying to get him to improve his behaviour and his manners, and stop coming across as a street urchin!

他的姐姐和一位名叫沃森小姐的女士，试图他改善自己的行为和举止，不再像流浪儿一样。

" Until darkness is as sweet to you as light, " the waif would say, " or until you ask us for your eyes. Ask and you shall see" .

" 直到你觉得黑暗和光明一样甜美。" 流浪儿总是回答，" 或者请求我们，要回你的双眼。只需请求，你就能重见光明。"

Neither of them had time to speak, however, before there was a tap at the door, and the spokesman of the street Arabs, young Wiggins, introduced his insignificant and unsavoury person.

但是他们还没有来得及开口，就听见门外有人敲门，原来正是街头流浪儿的代表，那个微不足道的小维金斯驾到。
