摘自《傲慢与偏见》
奥斯丁的名作《傲慢与偏见》,是一幅当时乡绅社会的风情画,以下这段描写,是伊莉莎白对达西第一次求婚做出的回应(节选)
In spite of her deeply-rooted dislike, she could not be insensible to the compliment of such a man's affection, and though her intentions did not vary for an instant, she was at first sorry for the pain he was to receive; till, roused to resentment by his subsequent language, she lost all compassion in anger. She tried, however, to compose herself to answer him with patience, when he should have done. He concluded with representing to her the strength of that attachment which, in spite of all his endeavours, he had found impossible to conquer; and with expressing his hope that it would now be rewarded by her acceptance of his hand. As he said this, she could easily see that he had no doubt of a favourable answer. He spoke of apprehension and anxiety, but his countenance expressed real security. Such a circumstance could only exasperate farther, and when he ceased, the colour rose into her cheeks, and she said, “In such cases as this, it is, I believe, the established mode to express a sense of obligation for the sentiments avowed, however unequally they may be returned. It is natural that obligation should be felt, and if I could feel gratitude, I would now thank you. But I cannot - I have never desired your good opinion, and you have certainly bestowed it most unwillingly. I am sorry to have occasioned pain to any one. It has been most unconsciously done, however, and I hope will be of short duration. The feelings which, you tell me, have long prevented the acknowledgment of your regard, can have little difficulty in overcoming it after this explanation.”
尽管她对他的厌恶之心根深蒂固,她究竟不能对这样一个男人的一番盛情漠然无动于衷;虽说她的意志不曾有过片刻的动摇,可是她倒也体谅到他将会受到痛苦,因此颇感不安,然而他后来的那些话引起了她的怨恨,她那一片怜惜之心便完全化成了愤怒。不过,她还是竭力镇定下来,以便等他把话说完,耐心地给他一个回答。未了,他跟她说,他对她的爱情是那么强烈,尽管他一再努力克服,结果还是克服不了,他又向她表明自己的希望,说是希望她能接受他的求婚。她一下子就看出他说这些话的时候,显然自认为她毫无问题会给他满意的回答。他虽然口里说他自己又怕又急,可是表情上却是一副万无一失的样子。这只惹得她更加愤怒;等他讲完话以后,她就红着脸说:“遇到这一类的事情,通常的方式是这样的:人家对你一片好心好意,你即使不能给以同样的报答,也得表示一番感激,我现在就得向你表示谢意。可惜我没有这种感觉。我从来不稀罕你的抬举,何况你抬举我也是十分勉强。我从来不愿意让任何人感到痛苦,纵使惹得别人痛苦,也是绝对出于无心,而且我希望很快就会事过境迁。你跟我说,以前你顾虑到种种方面,因此没有能够向我表明你对我的好感,那么,现在经过我这番解释之后,你一定很容易把这种好感克制下来。”
