“你真的星期六就要离开肯特吗?”她问。
"Yes -- if Darcy does not put it off again. But I am at his disposal. He arranges the business just as he pleases."
“是的,只要达西不再拖延。不过我得听他调遣。他办起事来只是凭他自己高兴。”
"And if not able to please himself in the arrangement, he has at least great pleasure in the power of choice. I do not know any body who seems more to enjoy the power of doing what he likes than Mr. Darcy."
“即使不能顺着他自己的意思去摆布,至少也要顺着他自己意思去选择一下。我从来没有看见过哪一个人,象达西先生这样喜欢当权作主,为所欲为。”
"He likes to have his own way very well," replied Colonel Fitzwilliam. "But so we all do. It is only that he has better means of having it than many others, because he is rich, and many others are poor. I speak feelingly. A younger son, you know, must be inured to self-denial and dependence."
“他太任性了,”费茨威廉上校回答道。“可是我们全都如此。只不过他比一般人有条件,可以那么做,因为他有钱,一般人穷。我是说的真心话。你知道,一个小儿子可就不得不克制自己,仰仗别人。”
"In my opinion, the younger son of an Earl can know very little of either. Now, seriously, what have you ever known of self-denial and dependence? When have you been prevented by want of money from going wherever you chose, or procuring any thing you had a fancy for?"
