The afternoon lying around camp, trying on different shirts to see which looked best on him and combing his whiskers.
一下午，他都在他的營地試穿不同的襯衫，想知道哪一件穿起來更帥，他還不停地用梳子梳他的胡子。
He would no sooner get a clean shirt on than he would discover that it was wet under the arms, from nervous perspiration, and he would have to change it for a dry one.
可是他最后穿上的那件襯衫后來卻被弄臟了，因為由于太緊張，腋下的汗把它弄濕了，于是他只好又換上一件干的。
He put on a clean shirt at two o'clock, another at three o'clock, and another at quarter past four.
他在兩點鐘換了一件干凈的襯衫，在三點鐘又換了一件，在四點十五分則又換了一件。
This took up most of the afternoon.

As five o'clock drew near, Stuart grew more and more nervous.

The day had turned chilly and Stuart was almost sure that there was going to be rain.
天色越來越陰，斯圖亞特想一定是快下雨了。
He couldn't imagine what he would do if it should rain just as Harriet Ames showed up to go canoeing.

Stuart heard someone coming down the path.

Stuart threw himself down against a stump and tried to strike an easy attitude, as though he were accustomed to taking girls out.
斯圖亞特倚在樹樁旁，盡量裝出一副悠閑的樣子，好像他常和女孩子約會一樣。
