也許會(huì)經(jīng)過各個(gè)榮耀的階段，從照亮人類的蒼白靈魂，到照亮最高級(jí)的六翼天使。

Besides, with this creed, I can so clearly distinguish between the criminal and his crime.

With this creed revenge never worries my heart, degradation never too deeply disgusts me, injustice never crushes me too low.

Helen's head, always drooping, sank a little lower as she finished this sentence.

A monitor, a great rough girl, presently came up, exclaiming in a strong Cumberland accent:
馬上就來了一位班長(zhǎng)，一個(gè)又大又粗的姑娘，帶著很重的昆布蘭口音叫道：
Helen Burns, if you don't go and put your drawer in order, and fold up your work this minute, I'll tell Miss Scatcherd to come and look at it!
海倫·彭斯，要是這會(huì)兒你不去整理抽屜，收拾你的針線活兒，我要告訴斯卡查德小姐，請(qǐng)她來看看了。
Helen sighed as her reverie fled, and getting up, obeyed the monitor without reply as without delay.
海倫的幻想煙消云散，她長(zhǎng)嘆一聲，站了起來，沒有回答，也沒有耽擱，便服從了這位班長(zhǎng)。
