The parlour was rather a small room, very plainly furnished, yet comfortable, because clean and neat.

There was no superfluous ornament in the room
房間里沒有多余的裝飾品，
not one modern piece of furniture, save a brace of workboxes and a lady's desk in rosewood, which stood on a side-table:

Mr. St. John -- sitting as still as one of the dusty pictures on the walls,
圣·約翰先生--一動不動地坐著，猶如墻上色彩暗淡的畫，
keeping his eyes fixed on the page he perused, and his lips mutely sealed -- was easy enough to examine.

Had he been a statue instead of a man, he could not have been easier.
他要是裝成塑像，而不是人，那是再容易不過了。
He was young -- perhaps from twenty-eight to thirty -- tall, slender; his face riveted the eye;
他很年輕--二十八至三十光景--高挑個子，身材頎長。他的臉引人注目，
it was like a Greek face, very pure in outline: quite a straight, classic nose; quite an Athenian mouth and chin.

It is seldom, indeed, an English face comes so near the antique models as did his.

He might well be a little shocked at the irregularity of my lineaments, his own being so harmonious.
他自己的五官那么勻稱，也許對我的不勻稱便有點兒吃驚了。
His eyes were large and blue, with brown lashes;
他的眼睛又大又藍，長著棕色的睫毛，
his high forehead, colourless as ivory, was partially streaked over by careless locks of fair hair.
高高的額頭跟象牙一般蒼白，額頭上不經意披下了幾綹金色的頭發。
