Chapter 08 THE ELF-CHILD AND THE MINISTER
第八章 小鬼和牧师
"This is awful!" cried the Governor, slowly recovering from the astonishment into which Pearl's response had thrown him. "Here is a child of three years old, and she cannot tell who made her! Without question, she is equally in the dark as to her soul, its present depravityand future destiny! Methinks, gentlemen, we need inquire no further!"
“这太可怕了!总督叫着,渐渐从珠儿的应答所带给他的震惊中恢复过来。“这是个三岁的孩子,可她根本说不出是谁造出了她!毫无疑问,她对自己的灵魂,对目前的堕落,对未来的命运,全然一无所知!依我看,诸位先生,我们无需再问了。
Hester caught hold of Pearl, and drew her forciblyinto her arms, confronting the old Puritan magistratewith almost a fierce expression. Alone in the world, cast off by it, and with this sole treasure to keep her heart alive, she felt that she possessed indefeasiblerights against the world, and was ready to defend them to the death.
海丝特抓住珠儿,强把她拉进自己的怀里,面对着那几乎是满险凶相的清教徒长官。她被这个世界所抛弃,只剩下孤身一人,只有这一件珍宝才能维持她心灵的生存,她感到她有不可剥夺的权利来对抗这个世界,而且准备好维护自己的权利一直到死。
