Daniel did not move for a long time after I had finished reading. I took his hand，but he did not notice. Suddenly he appeared to wake up，and said in a low voice，
我讀完信后，丹尼爾很長時間一動不動。我握住他的手，他沒有反應。突然他像是剛蘇醒似地低聲問道：
"Who's the man? I want to know his name."
“那個男人是誰？我想知道他的名字。”
Ham looked quickly at me，and I felt a shock run through my whole body. I fell on to a chair and could not speak.
哈姆很快看了我一眼，我感覺渾身一陣顫栗，我跌坐在椅子上，說不出話來。
"Don't listen，Master David，"Ham said，hesitating，"we don't blame you for it. "Peggotty put her arm round my neck，but I could not move. "A—gentleman's been here very often recently，"continued Ham in a broken voice，"and—today people saw Emily driving off with him in his coach! "
“你可以不聽，大衛少爺。”哈姆遲疑地說道，“我們不會怪你的。”辟果提把手臂搭在我脖子上，可我動彈不了。“一位——先生最近總在這兒出現。”哈姆斷斷續續地繼續道，“然后——今天，有人看見埃米莉坐在他的馬車上走了！”
"Tell me! "cried Daniel wildly. "Is his name Steerforth? "
“告訴我！”丹尼爾瘋狂地叫起來，“他的名字是斯提福茲？”
"It is! "replied Ham just as wildly，"and I'm sorry，Master David，but he's the wickedest man I've ever known! "
“是的！”哈姆同樣瘋狂地回答，“很抱歉，大衛少爺，可他是我所知道的最為卑劣的人！”
