A note on this passage

A repetição «existed… had existed» dá ao laço a solidez do tempo: não é afeto recente, é coisa de sempre. Montgomery ancora a relação das duas na longa duração da vida de aldeia, onde as amizades se medem em décadas de vizinhança. E prepara o paradoxo da linha seguinte: unidas justamente por serem tão diferentes.
