In listening, I sobbed convulsively; for I could repress what I endured no longer;
我聽著聽著便抽抽噎噎地哭泣起來，再也抑制不住強忍住的感情，
I was obliged to yield, and I was shaken from head to foot with acute distress.
不得不任其流露了，我痛苦萬分地渾身顫栗著。
When I did speak, it was only to express an impetuous wish that I had never been born, or never come to Thornfield.
到了終于開口時，我便只能表達一個沖動的愿望：但愿自己從來沒有生下來，從未到過桑菲爾德。
"Because you are sorry to leave it?"
“因為要離開而難過嗎？”
The vehemence of emotion, stirred by grief and love within me, was claiming mastery,
悲與愛在我內心所煽起的強烈情緒，正占上風，
and struggling for full sway, and asserting a right to predominate, to overcome,
并竭力要支配一切，壓倒一切，戰勝一切，
to live, rise, and reign at last: yes, -- and to speak.
要求生存、擴展和最終主宰一切，不錯--還要求吐露出來。
"I grieve to leave Thornfield: I love Thornfield:
“離開桑菲爾德我很傷心，我愛桑菲爾德：
I love it, because I have lived in it a full and delightful life, momentarily at least.
我愛它是因為我在這里過著充實而愉快的生活--至少有一段時間。
I have not been trampled on. I have not been petrified.
我沒有遭人踐踏，也沒有弄得古板僵化。
I have not been buried with inferior minds,
沒有混跡于志向低下的人之中，
and excluded from every glimpse of communion with what is bright and energetic and high.
也沒有被排斥在同光明、健康、高尚的心靈交往的一切機會之外。
I have talked, face to face, with what I reverence, with what I delight in, with an original, a vigorous, an expanded mind.
我已面對面同我所敬重的人、同我所喜歡的人，同一個獨特、活躍、博大的心靈交談過。
I have known you, Mr. Rochester; and it strikes me with terror and anguish to feel I absolutely must be torn from you for ever.
我已經熟悉你，羅切斯特先生，硬要讓我永遠同你分開，使我感到恐懼和痛苦。
I see the necessity of departure; and it is like looking on the necessity of death."
我看到非分別不可，就像看到非死不可一樣。”
