ature.人們總是執(zhí)意認為他們有權(quán)將個人的意志強加給他人，以后不會再有任何強大的意志那樣固執(zhí)地讓她屈從。Akindintentionoracruelintentionmadetheactseemnolessacrimeasshelookeduponitinthatbriefmomentofillumination.豁然明了的一霎那，在她看來，善意也好，惡意也好，都使這種行為看起來不亞于犯罪。Whatcouldlove,theunsolvedmystery,countforinfaceofthispossessionofself-assertionwhichshesuddenlyrecognizedasthestrongestimpulseofherbeing!愛情這一人類不解的奧秘比起她此刻擁有的自信又算得了什么！她忽然意識到這種自信正是她生命最強大的動力。Josephinewaskneelingbeforethecloseddoorwithherlipstothekeyhole,imploringforadmission.約瑟芬跪在緊閉的門前，嘴沖著鎖孔，懇求讓她進去。shewasdrinkinginaveryelixiroflifethroughthatopenwindow.她正透過敞開的窗子吸取著瓊汁玉液呢。Shearoseatlengthandopenedthedoortohersister’simportunities.Therewasafeverishtriumphinhereyes,andshecarriedherselfunwittinglylikeagoddessofVictory.Sheclaspedhersister’swaist,andtogethertheydescendedthestairs.在姐姐的一再懇求下她終于站了起來打開了門。她眼中有一股勝利的狂熱，不知不覺中姿態(tài)就像一位勝利女神。她摟著姐姐的腰，一起走下樓梯。HestoodamazedatJosephine’spiercingcry,atRichard’squickmotiontoscreenhimfromtheviewofhiswife.他站在那兒驚訝地看著約瑟芬驚聲尖叫，而里查德飛快地想擋住他以免讓他妻子看見。Onceuponatime,onasummer’sday,twopoets,havingshutupshop,wentoutintothecountrytocollectcopy,fortheirstockofthiscommoditywasexhausted.從前，一個夏日，兩位詩人“關(guān)店打烊”，到鄉(xiāng)下采集“素材”，因為他們這種商品的供應已經(jīng)耗盡了。Andastheyjourneyed,pokingaboutwiththeirwalkingsticksaftertheprecioussubstanceoftheirquest,theregatheredovertheirheadsadevilofstorm.旅途中，他們用手杖摸索著走路，尋找著他們所需要的珍貴的素材。這時，一場暴風雨正在他們的頭頂聚集。Andatthepropermomentthestormburstandtheraincamedownandthepoetsleftoffseekingforcopyandhuddleunderahawthorntree.頃刻間，暴雨傾盆，詩人停止了搜集素材，蜷縮在一棵山楂樹下。Youngmen,willyounotcomein?Whyplaytheheronwhostandslugubriouswithhisfeetincoldwaterwhenitisopentoyoutobecomeassparrowstwitteringwithgladnessbeneaththeeaves?年輕人，為什么不進來呢？為什么要扮演憂郁地站立在冷水中的白鷺，而不選擇做屋檐下快快樂樂嘰嘰喳喳的麻雀呢？5.Butthelodgekeeper’swifedidnotunderstandthewordcopy,sothatshewasamazedbeyondmeasureandthepowerofcommentwastakenfromher.看門人的妻子并不懂得什么叫“素材”，因此非常驚愕，不知該說什么好。6.Thereforetheonewentoutandboughtanewshirtatsevenandsixanddearatthat,andtheothergothimselfashillingbottleofAmmoniatedQuininewhichwastolerablycheapconsidering.所以，一個上街以7先令6便士的高價買了一件新襯衫，一個花了1先令買了一瓶阿芒奎寧，還不算貴吧。Omiserablegentlemen,inthenameofcivilizationandcommon-sense,comeinside.噢，可憐的先生們，看在人情事理的份上，進來吧。Theplacewasbathedindelicioussmellsofbreathingleaves,andthewarmsweetnessofhawthornperfumedtheair.整個地方沐浴在樹葉兒的新鮮氣味中；空氣中彌漫著山楂樹的香甜味兒。Onemassivetowerlo
