经典小说:《傲慢与偏见》第28章(1)
EVERY object in the next day's journey was new and interesting to Elizabeth; and her spirits were in a state for enjoyment; for she had seen her sister looking so well as to banish all fear for her health, and the prospect of her northern tour was a constant source of delight. When they left the high-road for the lane to Hunsford, every eye was in search of the Parsonage, and every turning expected to bring it in view. The palings of Rosings Park was their boundary on one side. Elizabeth smiled at the recollection of all that she had heard of its inhabitants.
第二天旅途上的每一样事物,伊丽莎白都感到新鲜有趣;她精神很愉快,因为看到姐姐气色那么好,可以不用再为她的健康担心,加上一想到去北方的旅行,她就越发高兴。当他们离开了大路,走上一条通往汉斯福的小径时,每一只眼睛都在寻找着那幢牧师住宅;每拐一个弯,都以为就要看到那幢房子。他们沿着罗新斯花园的栅栏往前走。伊丽莎白一想到外界所传闻的那家人家和种种情形,不禁好笑。
At length the Parsonage was discernable. The garden sloping to the road, the house standing in it, the green pales and the laurel hedge, everything declared that they were arriving. Mr. Collins and Charlotte appeared at the door, and the carriage stopped at a small gate, which led by a short gravel walk to the house, amidst the nods and smiles of the whole party. In a moment they were all out of the chaise, rejoicing at the sight of each other. Mrs. Collins welcomed her friend with the liveliest pleasure, and Elizabeth was more and more satisfied with coming, when she found herself so affectionately received. She saw instantly that her cousin's manners were not altered by his marriage; his formal civility was just what it had been, and he detained her some minutes at the gate to hear and satisfy his enquiries after all her family. They were then, with no other delay than his pointing out the neatness of the entrance, taken into the house; and as soon as they were in the parlour, he welcomed them a second time with ostentatious formality to his humble abode, and punctually repeated all his wife's offers of refreshment.
终于看到那幢牧师住宅了。大路斜对面的花园、花园里的房子、绿的栅栏、以及桂树围篱───每一样东西好象都在宣布他们的来到。柯林斯先生和夏绿蒂走到门口来了。在宾主频频点头脉脉微笑中,客人们在一道小门跟前停下了车,从这里穿过一条短短的鹅卵石铺道,便能直达正屋。一刹眼工夫,他们都下了车,宾主相见,无限欢欣。柯林斯简直手舞足蹈地欢迎自己的朋友,伊丽莎白受到这么亲切的欢迎,就越发满意于这次的作客了。她立刻看到她表兄并没有因为结了婚而改变态度,他还是完全和以往一样地拘泥礼节,在门口耽搁了她好几分钟,问候她全家大小的起居安好。听到她一一回答了之后,他才满意。于是他就没有再耽搁他们,只指给他们看看门口是多么整洁,便把客人们带进了屋子;等到客人一走进客厅,他又对他们作了第二次的欢迎,极其客气地说,这次承蒙诸位光临寒舍,真是不胜荣幸,并且刻不容缓地把他太太送上来的点心重新奉献了一次。
