He sat down: but he did not get leave to speak directly.
他坐了下來，但我并沒有讓他馬上就開口。
I had been struggling with tears for some time:
我己經強忍住眼淚多時，
I had taken great pains to repress them, because I knew he would not like to see me weep.
竭力不讓它流下來，因為我知道他不喜歡看到我哭。
Now, however, I considered it well to let them flow as freely and as long as they liked.
但現在我認為還是讓眼淚任意流淌好，愛淌多久就淌多久。
If the flood annoyed him, so much the better. So I gave way and cried heartily.
要是一腔淚水使他生了氣，那就更好。于是我放任自己，哭了個痛快。
Soon I heard him earnestly entreating me to be composed.
不久我就聽他真誠地求我鎮靜下來。
I said I could not while he was in such a passion.
我說他那么怒火沖天，我可無法鎮靜下來。
"But I am not angry, Jane: I only love you too well;
“可是我沒有生氣，簡。我只是太愛你了。
and you had steeled your little pale face with such a resolute, frozen look, I could not endure it.
你那蒼白的小臉神色木然，鐵板一塊，我可受不了。安靜下來，
Hush, now, and wipe your eyes."
噢，把眼睛擦一擦?！?/div>
His softened voice announced that he was subdued; so I, in my turn, became calm.
他口氣軟了下來，說明他己經克制住了。因此我也隨之鎮靜下來。
Now he made an effort to rest his head on my shoulder, but I would not permit it.
這時他試著要把他的頭靠在我肩上，但我不允許。
Then he would draw me to him: no.
隨后他要一把將我拉過去。不行！
"Jane! Jane!" he said, in such an accent of bitter sadness it thrilled along every nerve I had; "you don't love me, then?
“簡！簡！”他說。聲調那么傷心，我的每根神經都顫栗起來了?！澳敲茨悴粣畚伊耍?/div>
It was only my station, and the rank of my wife, that you valued?
你看重的只是我的地位以及作為我妻子的身份？
Now that you think me disqualified to become your husband, you recoil from my touch as if I were some toad or ape."
現在你認為我不配作你的丈夫，你就害怕我碰你一碰了，好像我是什么癩蛤蟆或者猿猴似的?！?/p>
