"I begin to be sorry that he comes at all," said Jane to her sister. "It would be nothing; I could see him with perfect indifference, but I can hardly bear to hear it thus perpetually talked of. My mother means well; but she does not know, no one can know, how much I suffer from what she says. Happy shall I be, when his stay at Netherfield is over!"
吉英對(duì)她妹妹說:“我現(xiàn)在反而覺得他還是不要來的好,其實(shí)也無所謂;我見到他也可以裝得若無其事;只是聽到人家老是談起這件事,我實(shí)在有些受不了。媽媽是一片好心,可是她不知道(誰也不知道)她那些話使我多么難受。但愿他不要在尼日斐花園再住下去,我就滿意了!”
"I wish I could say any thing to comfort you," replied Elizabeth; "but it is wholly out of my power. You must feel it; and the usual satisfaction of preaching patience to a sufferer is denied me, because you have always so much."
伊麗莎白說:“我真想說幾句話安慰安慰你,可惜一句也說不出。你一定明白我的意思。我不愿意象一般人那樣,看到人家難受,偏偏勸人家有耐性───因?yàn)槟阋幌蚓陀袠O大的耐性?!?/div>
Mr. Bingley arrived. Mrs. Bennet, through the assistance of servants, contrived to have the earliest tidings of it, that the period of anxiety and fretfulness on her side might be as long as it could. She counted the days that must intervene before their invitation could be sent; hopeless of seeing him before. But on the third morning after his arrival in Hertfordshire, she saw him, from her dressing-room window, enter the paddock and ride towards the house.
彬格萊先生終于來了。班納特太太多虧了傭人們加以協(xié)助,獲得消息最早,因此煩神也煩得最久。既然及早去拜望他的計(jì)劃已告失望,她便屈指計(jì)算著日子,看看還得再隔多少天才能送請(qǐng)貼。幸虧他來到哈福德郡的第三天,班納特太太便從化妝室的窗口看見他騎著馬走進(jìn)圍場(chǎng),朝她家里走來。
Her daughters were eagerly called to partake of her joy. Jane resolutely kept her place at the table; but Elizabeth, to satisfy her mother, went to the window -- she looked, -- she saw Mr. Darcy with him, and sat down again by her sister.
她喜出望外,急急忙忙喚女兒們來分享她這種愉快。吉英毅然決然地坐在桌位上不動(dòng)。伊麗莎白為了叫她母親滿意,便走到窗口望了一望,只見達(dá)西先生跟他一同來了,于是她便走回去坐在姐姐身旁。
"There is a gentleman with him, mamma," said Kitty; "who can it be?"
吉蒂說:“媽媽,另外還有位先生跟他一起來了呢,那是誰呀?”
"Some acquaintance or other, my dear, I suppose; I am sure I do not know."
“我想總不外乎是他朋友什么的,寶貝,我的確不知道?!?/div>
"La!" replied Kitty, "it looks just like that man that used to be with him before. Mr. what's-his-name. That tall, proud man."
“瞧!”吉蒂又說?!盎钕笠郧案谝黄鸬哪莻€(gè)人。記不起他的名字了,就是那個(gè)非常傲慢的高個(gè)兒呀?!?/div>
"Good gracious! Mr. Darcy! -- and so it does, I vow. Well, any friend of Mr. Bingley's will always be welcome here, to be sure; but else I must say that I hate the very sight of him."
“天哪,原來是達(dá)西先生!準(zhǔn)定是的。老實(shí)說,只要是彬格萊先生的朋友,這兒總是歡迎的;要不然,我一見到這個(gè)人就討厭。”
Jane looked at Elizabeth with surprise and concern. She knew but little of their meeting in Derbyshire, and therefore felt for the awkwardness which must attend her sister, in seeing him almost for the first time after receiving his explanatory letter. Both sisters were uncomfortable enough. Each felt for the other, and of course for themselves; and their mother talked on, of her dislike of Mr. Darcy, and her resolution to be civil to him only as Mr. Bingley's friend, without being heard by either of them. But Elizabeth had sources of uneasiness which could not be suspected by Jane, to whom she had never yet had courage to shew Mrs. Gardiner's letter, or to relate her own change of sentiment towards him. To Jane, he could be only a man whose proposals she had refused, and whose merit she had undervalued; but to her own more extensive information, he was the person to whom the whole family were indebted for the first of benefits, and whom she regarded herself with an interest, if not quite so tender, at least as reasonable and just as what Jane felt for Bingley. Her astonishment at his coming -- at his coming to Netherfield, to Longbourn, and voluntarily seeking her again, was almost equal to what she had known on first witnessing his altered behaviour in Derbyshire.
吉英極其驚奇、極其關(guān)心地望著伊麗莎白。她完全不知道妹妹在德比郡跟達(dá)西會(huì)面的事,因此覺得妹妹自從收到他那封解釋的信以后,這回第一次跟他見面,一定會(huì)覺得很窘。姐妹倆都不十分好受。她們彼此體貼,各有隱衷。母親依舊在嘮叨不休,說她頗不喜歡達(dá)西先生,只因?yàn)榭此烤惯€是彬格萊先生的朋友,所以才客客氣氣地接待他一番。這些話姐妹倆都沒有聽見。其實(shí)伊麗莎白心神不安,的確還另有原因,這是吉英所不知道的。伊麗莎白始終沒有勇氣把嘉丁納太太那封信拿給吉英看,也沒有勇氣向吉英敘述她對(duì)他感情變化的經(jīng)過。吉英只知道他向她求婚,被她拒絕過,她還低估過他的長處,殊不知伊麗莎白的隱衷絕不僅如此而已,她認(rèn)為他對(duì)她們?nèi)叶加心蟮亩鞯?,她因此?duì)他另眼看待。她對(duì)他的情意即使抵不上吉英對(duì)彬格萊那樣深切,至少也象吉英對(duì)待彬格萊一樣地合情合理,恰到好處。達(dá)西這次回到尼日斐花園,并且自動(dòng)到浪搏恩來重新找她,確實(shí)使她感到驚奇,幾乎象她上次在德比郡見他作風(fēng)大變時(shí)一樣地感到驚奇。
The colour which had been driven from her face, returned for half a minute with an additional glow, and a smile of delight added lustre to her eyes, as she thought for that space of time that his affection and wishes must still be unshaken. But she would not be secure.
時(shí)間已經(jīng)隔了這么久,而他的情意,他的心愿,竟始終不渝;一想到這里,她那蒼白的臉便重新恢復(fù)了血色,而且顯得更加鮮艷,她不禁喜歡得笑逐顏開,雙目放光??墒撬吘惯€是放心不下。
