1、Jane Eyre: Chapter 8 Volume IIA SPLENDID Midsummer shone over England: skies so pure, suns so radiant as were then seen in long succession, seldom favour even singly, our wave-girt land. It was as if a band of Italian days had come from the South, like a flock of glorious passenger birds, and lighte

The hay was all got in; the fields round Thornfield were green and shorn; the roads white and baked; the trees were in their dark prime; hedge and wood, full -leaved and deeply tinted, contrasted well with the sunny hue of the cleared meadows between.仲夏季節(jié)來(lái)到了英格

I watched her drop asleep, and when I left her, I sought thegarden.在施洗約翰節(jié)的前夕，阿德拉在干草小徑采了半天的野 草莓，可累壞了，太陽(yáng)一落山她就睡了。我看著她睡著后， 就離開她，來(lái)到花園里。It was now the sweetest hour of the twenty -four: “Day its fervid fires had wasted'," and dew fell cool on panting plain and scor

Where the sun had gone down in simple state-pure of the pomp of clouds-spread a solemn purple, burning with the light of red jewel and furnace flame at one point, on one hill -peak, and extending high and wide, soft and still softer, over half heaven. The east had its own charm of fine

6、deep blue, and its own modest gem, a rising and solitary star: soon it would boast the moon; but she was yet beneath the horizon.這是一天之中最美好的一個(gè)小時(shí) “白天已經(jīng)耗盡它 熾熱的烈火 ”，露水清涼地降落在喘息的平原和曬焦的山頂上， 緩解釋了暑氣。在太陽(yáng)沒(méi)落的地方，沒(méi)有華麗的云霞，只鋪 展著一層莊嚴(yán)的紫色 ;在遠(yuǎn)處一個(gè)小山峰上方的一點(diǎn)上， 依然 被紅寶石般的夕陽(yáng)的余暉輝映著，那余暉 正慢慢地向遠(yuǎn)方 擴(kuò)散開去，變得越來(lái)越柔和，覆蓋了半個(gè)天空。東方有它自 己湛藍(lán)、悅目

No nook in the g

At the bottom was a sunk fence; its sole separation from lonely fields: a winding walk, bordered

While such honey -dew fell, such silence reigned, such gloaming gathered, I felt as if I could haunt such shade for ever; but in threading the flower and fruit

10、 parterres at the upper part of the enclosure, enticed there by the light the now rising moon cast on this more open quarter, my step is stayed nobt y sound, not by sight, but once more by a warning fragrance.我在卵石小路上散了一會(huì)步。一陣淡淡的、熟悉的香味 雪茄煙味 從一扇窗戶里飄了出來(lái)。我看見(jiàn)圖書室 的窗子打開了一道手掌寬的縫隙 ;我知道那里可能正有人在 窺視，因此我便走開了，到果園里

11、去了。庭園里再?zèng)]有哪個(gè)角落能比這兒更隱蔽，簡(jiǎn)直像伊甸園。這里到處是茂盛的樹木，盛開的鮮花，一邊由一堵高墻把它和院子隔開，另一邊由一條山毛櫸林陰道像屏障似的把它和草坪分開; 盡頭是一道坍塌地籬笆， 又把電腦和寂寞的田野分開來(lái) ;一條曲折的 路通向籬笆，路的兩邊全是月桂樹，路的那一頭有一顆很大 的七葉樹，圍著樹有一圈座位。在這里，你可以漫步而不讓 人看見(jiàn)。在這樣蜜露降落、萬(wàn)籟俱寂、暮色漸濃的時(shí)候，我 感到我好像可以永遠(yuǎn)在這樹陰下徘徊下去。但是這時(shí)初升的 月亮把月光灑瀉在比較開闊的地方，我受到誘惑，當(dāng)我正穿 過(guò)園子里較商的花叢和果木的時(shí)候，我的腳步卻被阻止了 不是被聲音，也不是被景色，而是再一冷被一

12、陣警告性 的香味阻止了。Sweet-briar and southernwood, jasmine, pink, and rose have long been yielding their evening sacrifice of incense: this new scent is neither of shrub nor flower; it is I know it well it is Mr. Rochester's cigar. I look round and I listen. I see trees laden with ripening fruit. I hear

13、a nightingale warbling in a wood half a mile off; no moving form is visible ， no coming step audible; but that perfume increases: I must flee. I make for the wicket leading to the shrubbery, and I see Mr. Rochester entering. I step aside into the ivy recess; he will not stay long: he will soon retur

14、n whence he came ， and if I sit stillhe will never see me.香薔薇、青蒿、茉莉、石竹、玫瑰都在晚間散發(fā)出濃郁 的香味 ;剛剛出現(xiàn)的這股新的香味， 既不是灌木香也不是花蜜 香，而是 我非常熟悉的 羅切斯特先生抽的雪茄煙的 香味。我轉(zhuǎn)過(guò)身來(lái)， 側(cè)耳靜聽(tīng)。 我看見(jiàn)掛著成熟果實(shí)的樹木， 聽(tīng)得見(jiàn)夜鶯在半英里以外的樹林間歡快地歌唱 ;卻看不見(jiàn)有 走動(dòng)的人影， 也聽(tīng)不到任何走近的腳步聲 ;可是那股香味卻越 來(lái)越濃，我得趕緊逃走。當(dāng)我朝著通向灌木叢的那個(gè)小門走 去時(shí)，恰好看見(jiàn)羅切斯特先生走進(jìn)來(lái)。我連忙往旁邊躲閃， 隱藏到常青藤的深處。他不會(huì)在這兒停留太久

15、，很快就會(huì)回 去，只要我悄悄地坐著不動(dòng)，他就不可能看見(jiàn)我。But no eventide is as pleasant to him as to me, and this antique garden as attractive; and he strolls on ， now lifting the gooseberry-tree branches to look at the fruit, large as plums ， with which they are laden; now taking a ripe cherry from the wall; now stooping towards a knot of flowers, either to inhale their fragrance or to admire the dew-beads on their petals. A great moth goes humming by me; it alights on a plant at
