夏绿蒂又说:“咖苔琳夫人的确是个道貌岸然、通达情理的女人,而且是位极其殷勤的邻居。”
"Very true, my dear, that is exactly what I say. She is the sort of woman whom one cannot regard with too much deference."
“说得很对,亲爱的,你真说到我心上去了。象她这样一位夫人,你无论对她怎样尊敬,依旧会感到有些欠缺。”
The evening was spent chiefly in talking over Hertfordshire news, and telling again what had been already written; and when it closed, Elizabeth, in the solitude of her chamber, had to meditate upon Charlotte's degree of contentment, to understand her address in guiding, and composure in bearing with her husband, and to acknowledge that it was all done very well. She had also to anticipate how her visit would pass, the quiet tenor of their usual employments, the vexatious interruptions of Mr. Collins, and the gaieties of their intercourse with Rosings. A lively imagination soon settled it all.
这一晚主要就谈论哈福德郡的资讯,又把以前信上所说的话重新再提一遍。大家散了以后,伊丽莎白孤单单地在房间里,不由得默默想起了夏绿蒂对于现状究竟满意到什么程度,驾御丈夫的手腕巧妙到什么程度,容忍丈夫的肚量又大到什么程度。她不由得承认,一切都安排得非常好。她又去想象着这次作客的时间将如何度过,无非是:平淡安静的日常起居,柯林斯先生那种惹人讨厌的插嘴打贫,再加上跟罗新斯的应酬来往等。她那丰富的想象力马上解决了整个问题。
