Dombey and Son (Excerpt)
“I must have done① something,”said Florence.“Tell me what it is.You have changed your manner to me,dear Mama.I cannot say how instantly I feel the least change, for I love you with my whole heart.”
“As I do you,”said Edith.“Ah,Florence,believe me never more than now!”
“Why do you go away from me so often,and keep away② ”asked Florence.“And why do you sometimes look so strangely at me,dear Mama You do so,do you not ”
Edith signified③assent④ with her dark eyes.
“Why ”returned Florence imploringly⑤.“Tell me why,that I may know how to please you better, and tell me this shall not be so any more.”
“My Florence,”answered Edith,taking the hand that embraced her neck,and looking into the eyes that looked into hers so lovingly,as Florence knelt upon the ground before her,“why it is,I cannot tell you.It is neither for me to say,nor you to hear, but that it is,and that it must be,I know.Should I do it if I did not ”
“Are we to be estranged,Mama ”asked Florence,gazing at her like one frightened.
Edith’s silent lips formed “Yes”.
Florence looked at her with increasing fear and wonder,until she could see her no more through the blinding tears that ran down her face.
“Florence! my life!”said Edith,hurriedly⑥.“Listen to me.I cannot bear to see this grief.Be calmer.You see that I am composed,and is it nothing to me ”
She resumed⑦ her steady voice and manner as she said the latter words,and added presently:“Not wholly estranged.Partially⑧,and only that,in appearance,Florence,for in my own breast I am still the same to you,and ever will be.But what I do is not done for myself.”
董贝父子(节选)
“我一定做错什么事了,”弗洛伦斯说道,“请告诉我是什么吧。您对我的态度改变了,亲爱的妈妈。我说不出我是多么迅速地感觉到最细微的变化,因为我全心全意地爱您。”
“就像我爱你一样,”伊迪丝说道,“啊,弗洛伦斯,请相信我,我从没有比现在更强烈地爱你!”
“为什么您时常离开我、回避我呢 ”弗洛伦斯问道,“为什么您有时那么奇怪地看着我呢,亲爱的妈妈 您是这样的,难道不是吗 ”
伊迪丝用她的黑眼睛表示同意。
“为什么呢 ”弗洛伦斯恳求地问道,“告诉我为什么,这样我好知道怎样更好地使您高兴。请跟我说,我们不应当再这样了。”
“我亲爱的弗洛伦斯,”伊迪丝回答道,一边紧紧地握着搂抱住她脖子的手,注视着那双十分亲切地注视着她的眼睛,这时弗洛伦斯跪在她的面前,“这是什么原因,我不能告诉你。这是我不应当说的,也是你不应当听的。但事实就是这样,而且必须是这样的,这点我知道。如果我不知道的话,难道我会这样对待你吗 ”
“是不是我们必须相互疏远,妈妈 ”弗洛伦斯问道,像受了惊吓那样注视着她。
伊迪丝无声地动了动嘴唇,做出一个说“是”的形状。
弗洛伦斯带着更大的恐惧与惊异望着她,直到流到脸上的泪水模糊了她的眼睛,使她看不见伊迪丝为止。
“弗洛伦斯!我的心肝!”伊迪丝急忙说道,“请听我说。看到你这样悲伤,我受不了。冷静些。你看我是沉着冷静的,难道我做到这点容易吗 ”
她说最后几个字的时候,又恢复了镇静的声音与态度,并立即补充道:“不是完全疏远。只是一定程度上的疏远,仅仅在表面上装装样子,弗洛伦斯,因为在我的内心,我对你仍旧和过去一样,而且将永远这样。不过我这样做并不是为了我自己。”

Dombey and Son (Excerpt)
“I must have done① something,”said Florence.“Tell me what it is. You have changed your manner to me,dear Mama. I cannot say how instantly I feel the least change, for I love you with my whole heart.”
“As I do you,”said Edith.“Ah,Florence,believe me never more than now!”
“Why do you go away from me so often,and keep away②?”asked Florence.“And why do you sometimes look so strangely at me,dear Mama? You do so,do you not?”
Edith signified③assent④ with her dark eyes.
“Why?”returned Florence imploringly⑤.“Tell me why,that I may know how to please you better, and tell me this shall not be so any more.”
“My Florence,”answered Edith,taking the hand that embraced her neck,and looking into the eyes that looked into hers so lovingly,as Florence knelt upon the ground before her,“why it is,I cannot tell you. It is neither for me to say,nor
you to hear, but that it is,and that it must be,I know. Should I do it if I did not?”
“Are we to be estranged,Mama?”asked Florence,gazing at her like one frightened.
Edith's silent lips formed “Yes”.
Florence looked at her with increasing fear and wonder,until she could see her no more through the blinding tears that ran down her face.
“Florence! my life!”said Edith,hurriedly⑥.“Listen to me. I cannot bear to see this grief. Be calmer. You see that I am composed,and is it nothing to me?”
She resumed⑦ her steady voice and manner as she said the latter words,and added presently:“Not wholly estranged. Partially⑧,and only that,in appearance,Florence,for in my own breast I am still the same to you,and ever will be. But what I do is not done for myself.”

“我一定做错什么事了,”弗洛伦斯说道,“请告诉我是什么吧。您对我的态度改变了,亲爱的妈妈。我说不出我是多么迅速地感觉到最细微的变化,因为我全心全意地爱您。”
“就像我爱你一样,”伊迪丝说道,“啊,弗洛伦斯,请相信我,我从没有比现在更强烈地爱你!”
“为什么您时常离开我、回避我呢?”弗洛伦斯问道,“为什么您有时那么奇怪地看着我呢,亲爱的妈妈?您是这样的,难道不是吗?”
伊迪丝用她的黑眼睛表示同意。
“为什么呢?”弗洛伦斯恳求地问道,“告诉我为什么,这样我好知道怎样更好地使您高兴。请跟我说,我们不应当再这样了。” #b#
“我亲爱的弗洛伦斯,”伊迪丝回答道,一边紧紧地握着搂抱住她脖子的手,注视着那双十分亲切地注视着她的眼睛,这时弗洛伦斯跪在她的面前,“这是什么原因,我不能告诉你。这是我不应当说的,也是你不应当听的。但事实就是这样,而且必须是这样的,这点我知道。如果我不知道的话,难道我会这样对待你吗?”
“是不是我们必须相互疏远,妈妈?”弗洛伦斯问道,像受了惊吓那样注视着她。
伊迪丝无声地动了动嘴唇,做出一个说“是”的形状。
弗洛伦斯带着更大的恐惧与惊异望着她,直到流到脸上的泪水模糊了她的眼睛,使她看不见伊迪丝为止。
“弗洛伦斯!我的心肝!”伊迪丝急忙说道,“请听我说。看到你这样悲伤,我受不了。冷静些。你看我是沉着冷静的,难道我做到这点容易吗?”
她说最后几个字的时候,又恢复了镇静的声音与态度,并立即补充道:“不是完全疏远。只是一定程度上的疏远,仅仅在表面上装装样子,弗洛伦斯,因为在我的内心,我对你仍旧和过去一样,而且将永远这样。不过我这样做并不是为了我自己。”
