"Now for the hitch in Jane's character," he said at last, speaking more calmly than from his look I had expected him to speak.
“至于簡(jiǎn)性格上的障礙，”他終于說(shuō)，比他的神態(tài)所讓我期望的要鎮(zhèn)定。
"The reel of silk has run smoothly enough so far;
“到現(xiàn)在為止，這團(tuán)絲線還是轉(zhuǎn)得夠順利的，
but I always knew there would come a knot and a puzzle: here it is.
但我向來(lái)知道，會(huì)出現(xiàn)結(jié)頭和迷團(tuán)，現(xiàn)在就是。
Now for vexation, and exasperation, and endless trouble! By God!
此刻面對(duì)著煩惱、氣怒和無(wú)休無(wú)止的麻煩！上帝呀！
I long to exert a fraction of Samson's strength, and break the entanglement like tow!"
我真想動(dòng)用薩姆森的一分力量，快刀斬亂麻！”
He recommenced his walk, but soon again stopped, and this time just before me.
他又開(kāi)始走動(dòng)，但很快停了下來(lái)，這回正好停在我面前。
"Jane! will you hear reason?" (he stooped and approached his lips to my ear); "because, if you won't, I'll try violence."
“簡(jiǎn)！你愿意聽(tīng)我說(shuō)理嗎？（他彎下腰來(lái)，湊近我耳朵）因?yàn)橐悄悴宦?tīng)，我就要使用暴力了。”
His voice was hoarse; his look that of a man who is just about to burst an insufferable bond and plunge headlong into wild license.
他的聲音嘶啞，他的神態(tài)像是要沖破不可忍受的束縛，不顧一切地大膽放肆了。
I saw that in another moment, and with one impetus of frenzy more, I should be able to do nothing with him.
我在另一個(gè)場(chǎng)合見(jiàn)過(guò)這種情形，要是再增一分狂亂的沖動(dòng)，我就對(duì)他無(wú)能為力了。
The present -- the passing second of time -- was all I had in which to control and restrain him
此刻，唯有在一瞬之間將他控制住，不然，
a movement of repulsion, flight, fear would have sealed my doom, -- and his.
一個(gè)表示厭惡，逃避和膽怯的動(dòng)作將置我自己--還有他--于死地。
But I was not afraid: not in the least.
然而我并不害怕，絲毫沒(méi)有。
I felt an inward power; a sense of influence, which supported me.
我感到一種內(nèi)在的力量，一種氣勢(shì)在支持著我。
The crisis was perilous; but not without its charm:
危急關(guān)頭往往險(xiǎn)象環(huán)生，但也并非沒(méi)有魅力，
such as the Indian, perhaps, feels when he slips over the rapid in his canoe.
就像印第安人乘著皮筏穿過(guò)激流所感覺(jué)到的那樣。
I took hold of his clenched hand, loosened the contorted fingers, and said to him, soothingly,
我握住他捏得緊緊的手，松開(kāi)他扭曲的手指，撫慰地對(duì)他說(shuō)：
"Sit down; I'll talk to you as long as you like, and hear all you have to say, whether reasonable or unreasonable."
“坐下吧，你愛(ài)談多久我就同你談多久，你想說(shuō)什么，不管有理無(wú)理，都聽(tīng)你說(shuō)。”
