I had a suspicion the sister was sapphic .

我怀疑那修女是个同性恋。

" I 've figured it out ! I am a lesbian ! " I exclaimed to my other sapphic friends .

我对其他的女同朋友们大喊：“我终于想明白了！我是个女同！”

Perhaps it was a deliberate plan to preserve the sapphic verse from censors , or perhaps it was simply scrap like newspapers today .

或者这是为了萨福的诗句不遭受审查而有意为之，又或者它们就像今天那些过期被丢掉的报纸一样。

Very little of the actual poetry remains , sadly , and although there were reputedly nine volumes of sapphic verse , only one full poem and a handful of almost complete ones have survived .

遗憾的是尽管有号称九卷萨福诗集，但实际上只有很少流传下来，仅有一首长诗和少量完整的作品。
