"What did you say of me, that I did not deserve? For, though your accusations were ill-founded, formed on mistaken premises, my behaviour to you at the time had merited the severest reproof. It was unpardonable. I cannot think of it without abhorrence."
“你罵我的話，哪一句不是活該？雖然你的指斥都沒有根據，都是聽到人家以訛傳訛,可是我那次對你的態度，實在應該受到最嚴厲的責備。那是不可原諒的。我想起這件事來，就免不了痛恨自己。”
"We will not quarrel for the greater share of blame annexed to that evening," said Elizabeth. "The conduct of neither, if strictly examined, will be irreproachable; but since then, we have both, I hope, improved in civility."
伊麗莎白說：“那天下午的事，究竟應該誰多負責任，我們也用不著爭論了，嚴格說來，雙方的態度都不好，不過從那次以后，我覺得我們雙方都比較有禮貌些了。”
"I cannot be so easily reconciled to myself. The recollection of what I then said, of my conduct, my manners, my expressions during the whole of it, is now, and has been many months, inexpressibly painful to me. Your reproof, so well applied, I shall never forget: "had you behaved in a more gentleman-like manner." Those were your words. You know not, you can scarcely conceive, how they have tortured me; -- though it was some time, I confess, before I was reasonable enough to allow their justice."
“我心里實在過意不去。幾個月以來，一想起我當時說的那些話，表現出的那種行為，那種態度，那種表情，我就覺得說不出地難過。你罵我的話，確實罵得好，叫我一輩子也忘不了。你說：‘假如你表現得有禮貌一些就好了。’你不知道你這句話使我多么的痛苦，你簡直無從想象；不過，說老實話，我也還是過了好久才明白過來，承認你那句話罵得對。”
"I was certainly very far from expecting them to make so strong an impression. I had not the smallest idea of their being ever felt in such a way."
“我萬萬想不到那句話對你有那樣大的影響。我完全沒有料到那句話竟會叫你難受。”
"I can easily believe it. You thought me then devoid of every proper feeling, I am sure you did. The turn of your countenance I shall never forget, as you said that I could not have addressed you in any possible way that would induce you to accept me."
“你這話我倒很容易相信。你當時認為我沒有一絲一毫真正的感情，我相信你當時一定是那樣想法。我永遠也忘不了，當時你竟翻了臉，你說，不管我怎樣向你求婚，都不能打動你的心，叫你答應我。”
"Oh! do not repeat what I then said. These recollections will not do at all. I assure you that I have long been most heartily ashamed of it."
“哎喲，我那些話你也不必再提，提起來未免不象話。告訴你，我自己也早已為那件事覺得難為情。”
Darcy mentioned his letter. "Did it," said he, "did it soon make you think better of me?
達西又提起那封信。他說：“那封信──你接到我那封信以后，是否立刻對我有好感一些？
